The term kemenche is used to describe two types of three-stringed bowed musical instruments.
Both types of kemenche are played in the downright position, either by resting it on the knee when sitting, or held in front of the player when standing. It is always played "braccio", that is, with the tuning head uppermost. The kemenche bow is called the doksar, the Greek term for bow.
Rasim Keskin was recording this video and Cihan Al play it in Rize-Ikizdere-Yerelma Köyü (cevatoz).
Rize is the capital of Rize Province, in northeast Turkey, on the Black Sea coast.
