🔆 Sursingar and Joydeep Mukherjee
✅ A stringed musical instrument that is similar to the sarod, but which is older and produces deeper notes.
✅ Rarely used in performances.
✅ Made of wood and has a gourd attached to a hollow wooden handle with a metal fingerboard.
✅ The strings of the instrument, usually four in number and made of brass or bronze,are plucked with a metal pick.
✅ It can be played either holding it vertically in front of the musician and supported by his left shoulder like the Veena, or holding it parallel to the ground like the Sarod, or like the Sitar, which is held at an angle of 50-60 degrees to the ground.
✅ The Sursingar (along with the Rudra Veena and the Surbahar) usually accompanies Dhrupad, the genre of Hindustani vocal music which has a low, deep, and thoughtful pitch.
✅ Kolkata-based multi-instrumentalist Joydeep (Ustad Bismillah Khan Award) is credited with reviving the Sursingar, along with another lost stringed instrument.
