- Description
- The tuning of this little Nile valley harp is interesting, viz:- 396, 324, 292, 252, 224, vs. as it does not cover a complete octave which is more usual with other harps of this design. Presumably had there been a sixth string it would have been tuned to 198 the lower octave of the top note thus giving a pentatonic scale. Self delectation song with Bonguma horizontal, arched harp.
