Question

Which one of the following is a pair of Tatt instruments?

A.

Pinaki - Vallaki

B.

Muraj - Mridang

C.

Bheri - Patah

D.

Aadambar - Vallaki

Correct option is A


Correct Option: a)
In the ancient Indian classification of instruments (as found in the Natyashastra), 'Tatt' refers to instruments whose sound is produced by the vibration of a string (chordophones).
Information Booster:
· Pinaki and Vallaki are both types of stringed instruments (Veena) mentioned in ancient texts.
· Therefore, they form a correct pair of Tatt Vadya.
· Pinaki is often associated with Lord Shiva's bow, and Vallaki is another name for the harp-like instrument.
Additional Knowledge:
· Muraj and Mridang are Avanaddha Vadya (membranophones/percussion).
· Bheri and Patah are also percussion instruments (drums and kettle drums).
· Aadambar is a wind instrument (Sushira Vadya), not a string instrument.
