Sindhi Sarangi is a bowed string instrument from Rajasthan. It has a resonator, a finger board and peg box carved out of a single block of wood. It has four playing gut strings and twenty-two sympathetic steel strings. It was originally created to accompany vocal music as the instrument could precisely imitate the gradations of the human voice. Sindhi, Muslim and Jogi communities of Rajasthan use the instrument to sing Sufi Kalams.
