Street Musician Playing Bulgarian Gadulka

[MegaSHamed]

It is very beautiful instrument so sad that didn't know it before , concerning afghan rubab or indian sarod well , because of our history we could say we are same race yes it does look like any kind of instruments u could find in our lands. Brothers have same tests , by the way keep up ur channel bro.

[GatoradeIsNotJuice]

actually.. this looks nowhere near close to the indian sarod

Whats the piece of music He's playing, I use to play that interment before I broke my hands and had to sell it all, so I know the piece, just not the name.

[DEUTSCHLANDDUDE]

and mind you this guy is playing beautifully! What nationality was he?

[Jigov]

Bulgaria, its written on the Video,

[Jigov]

more like Bulgaria Gypsy

[bulgarish]

Hi, iBreakCameras. If u r interested in that musical instrument, I can send u some more links.

[glorplaxy]

i fail to see how it looks like a rabab or sarod

[laberhalimi]

the albanian Lahuta is older than that one, they are of the same kind but the Lahuta only have one string :)

[Jigov]

no.... this instrumen its actually Indian, and the indian has one string. our instruments are just little different but the orinigals comes from India.

[DEUTSCHLANDDUDE]

I am an Indian musician and there are similarities between Indian music and this. We have many types of bowed instruments like Central Asia, Middle East and Africa. There sure must b a connection as I have heard many players of this instrument speak to me about it.

[TheCr0wing]

I want one

[obedinenie]

?!?! maybe greece from tracians similar.Tracians lived in Balkans before greeks.Now trakians,proto-bulgarians & slavic=BULGARIA.

Turks coming in the balkans befor 700 years

[PashaofTrikala]

quite similar to lyra of greece and turkey

[Huntsmann]

Hmm Prince has taken this instrument up.

[jimihumhumnukuapua]

[anahatatutu]

Gadulka!

[KisaiKagai]

Hehe, I saw this video of a group of people playing Afghan music. And one Afghan guy made his own intrument out of a can and he played it like that..it's amazing.

[kellythoma]

This instrument is quite definitely not an Afghan Rabab. It is a Bulgarian Gadulka.

[iBreakCameras]

Hey! Thanks so much for the info. I updated the title.

[AfghanPride25]

hei man !! this is not robab :) We have exact the same istrument but we call that Ghichak :) Your instrument sounds en look like Afghan Ghichak, EXACT !! . What a coincidence ?:))

[danielb93]

[mashrotkhany]

[Faisalha9159]

This is not an Afghan rabab my friend.

Hi, I like that clip and I've rated you as awesome. I've created a video clip of me playing a jaws harp. Please click on my id link above. I've created some strange sound effects by strumming mine like a banjo.

[Gor3x]

I wish i could play like that .

[iBreakCameras]

Yeah I wish i could play one of those things period. I looked all over for one in morocco a few days after I saw this musician but I had a horrible guide who only wanted to take me to the rug, brass, and zilij vendors. Do you know what this instrument is called?

[Caladborg]

It's called a lotar, you could probably find one in a morrocan market place .

[iBreakCameras]

Not sure if you're interested but I think I figured out what this thing actually is. It seems to be a rabab. If you look closely you will see several tuning pegs on the instrument which are for sympathetic strings. The lotar or oud is just basically a lute which has no sympathetic strings.
