Music instruments

The most popular Luri musical instruments include sorna, Karna,[3] dohol, tâl (Luri kamancheh),[4] tonbak (tomak), and the common Iranian traditional instruments. Meanwhile, the Luri kamancheh is the only one that is fundamentally different from other Iranian music instruments.[5] The Lurs select the Mâhur as their basic musical scale to showcase the magnificence, grandeur and independence of their people.[6]
