harmonikussá

Harmonikussá is a Hungarian musical instrument that is a member of the lute family. It is a fretted string instrument with a pear-shaped body, a long neck, and a fretboard that extends the entire length of the neck. The harmonikussá typically has 12 to 14 strings, which are tuned in fourths or fifths, and are played with a plectrum. The instrument is held under the chin and played with the right hand, while the left hand is used to press the strings against the fretboard. The harmonikussá is known for its distinctive sound, which is often described as bright and resonant. It is commonly used in Hungarian folk music and has also been incorporated into contemporary music. The harmonikussá was developed in the 19th century and has since become an important part of Hungarian musical heritage.
