Haegeum :Seni musik tradisional

 Haegeum : alat musik tradisional Korea Selatan.


haegŭm, two-stringed vertical fiddle used in many traditional Korean musical genres. A hardwood bow strung with horsehair is passed between the strings to create the sound. The soundbox is made of paulownia wood and is open at the back. The two twisted-silk strings, tuned a fifth apart (as c-g), are attached at the bottom of the soundbox; they pass over a small wooden bridge and up the long bamboo neck to large pegs.

In performance the musician sits cross-legged, holding the instrument vertically on the left knee. The left hand controls pitch and vibrato by pulling the strings toward the neck; there is no fingerboard. With the right hand the performer moves the bow horizontally between the strings while controlling the tension of the horsehair.
