Fusion ❤️ Blend of Sitar & Saxophone ❤️ Salapam ❤️ B.Sivaramakrishna Rao, Janardhan

Sitar is a plucked stringed instrument used mainly in Hindustani music and Indian classical music. The instrument is believed to have been derived from the veena, an ancient Indian instrument, which was modified by a Mughal court musician to conform with the tastes of his Mughal patrons and named after a Persian instrument called the Setar (meaning three strings). In appearance, the Sitar is similar to the Tanpura, except it has frets. The body of Sitar is more or less a spherical gourd at the lower end. Saxophone (also referred to as the sax) is a family of woodwind instruments. Saxophones are usually made of brass and played with a single-reed mouthpiece similar to that of the clarinet. The saxophone family was invented by the Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax in 1840. Adolphe Sax wanted to create a group or series of instruments that would be the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds, and the most adaptive of the brass that would fill the vacant middle ground between the two sections.
