Hello everyone. This instrument originates from Uyghur Turks who mostly live in Xinjiang today. They call this instrument Ghijak. Kamancheh is the persian name and almost identical. In its history like most of all other Uyghur instruments Ghijak is brought to central Asia, then to Khorasan region and to Anatolia. And then to arab peninsula. Afterwards arabs brought this one and many other Uyghur instruments like Rewap/Rebab to north Africa and to Andalusia (Spain). Finally Europeans met these instruments, played them and transformed into new ones. Rebab is the ancient instrument from Uyghurs that Europeans trasformed into Violin.

I love this Instrument! ( No matter from where it is ) 😄❤

Kamanche or Kaman-Cheh is a compound word consisting of 2 words: Kaman and che/ cheh. Both words are Persian: Kaman in English means bow, and Che/ cheh is a suffix, also a Persian word meaning small. So kamanche simply mean "small bow" The Persians have been in that region for 5,000 years and are mentioned in the Torah and new testaments and the civilization goes back way before Zoroaster or Zaratostra this is already 3,800 years ago. It does not make any sense for any non-Persian speaking culture to make an instrument and name it in a foreign language!

You cannot say Kaman is a Persian word surely, because it is in Azeri and Turkey too. And "Cha" is a Turkish suffix. Although there are many Persian word with "CHE", there are countless in Turkish and Azeri. All in all, maybe attributing a word to a nation is not correct. Whether or not neighboring cultures influence each other, instead of accepting this fact, unfortunately, some people manipulate resources like Wikipedia.

Yes, I want a lesson but I don't have a kamancheh 🤔 Please send one 🤣
