A musical bow is a chordophone consisting of a string stretched across a curved support. Its sound may be amplified by the player’s mouth or a resonating chamber, depending on the instrument and technique. It should not be confused with the bow used to rub violin strings. This category brings together references identifying a musical bow as a sound source and allows comparison of materials, construction, and documented uses. Photographs, field notes, locality, and playing method are important for recognizing a particular variant. The instrument name in a catalogue is not sufficient to establish a specific cultural tradition.
