Tar — Azerbaijani national musical instrument
The tar is one of the main symbols of Azerbaijani musical culture and the leading stringed-plucked instrument of mugham and folk music. Thanks to its bright, deep, and expressive timbre, the tar holds a special place in solo performances, ensembles, and mugham trios.
What should be considered when choosing a tar?
When buying a tar, one should consider the build quality of the body and neck, the precision of the frets, the balance of the strings, the stability of the tuning, the weight of the instrument, and its comfort during performance. Comfortable and balanced models are suitable for beginners, while tars with richer resonance and dynamic sound capabilities are appropriate for professional performance.
