| dc.description.abstract | In old Armenian literature, the terms pandirn (wù) and bambirn (pw) are used to refer to musical instruments. For over one and a half centuries, there were heated discussions about what type/s of musical instrument/s these two terms referred to. This paper aims to show that these two words do not refer to different instruments but are variations of the same term; pandirn, which is mentioned in the 5th century, is the most ancient form. The term and its variants were used until approximately the 14th century, when both were replaced by several names such as chashta, darabula, tambura, chogur, sharkhi and finally by saz, which is the term currently used. Based on linguistic data, archaeological discoveries and medieval miniature paintings, the conclusion of the author is that this musical instrument was a long-necked lute, with a semi-spheroid or piriform shaped soundbox and with a soundboard initially made of leather and later on of wood. The author notes that the bowed instrument devised in Soviet Armenia in the 1950s and 1960s, called "bambir", and has nothing in common with the historical instrument except its name. | |
