Me with my oversized instrument

[sheela_chari]

This video is probably a little too long and betrays the fact that I don't know how to film myself. But there you have it. A bona fide video of myself with a very hefty, but beautiful stringed instrument brought back home from a recent trip to South India.

Many thanks to those of you who brave the 4 minutes of footage here. And yes, for about half

I'm so glad you showed us the veena. I'd been wondering what it looked like. I'll wait eagerly to hear what it sounds like. Thanks.

Thank you, Barbara! I'm glad you could get a chance to see it, too. And maybe I will videotape me + the veena a little better next time!

How beautiful! And you did a splendid job presenting it. Can't wait to hear you play!
