[edit] Manipur: Native Music
Traditional Music
Manipur is a land of music and dance.
Pung, Kartal, Mangkang, Bansuri and Sembong are
the soul of Manipuri Sankritana music and Classical
Manipuri Dance. It assumes an important ritual
character as an indispensable part of social and
devotional ceremonies. Pena is a string instrument
which is played by fiddling somewhat similar to the
Ektara of Bengal.
The tribes of the hills use a wide range of wind musical instruments made of bamboo. Puleh, Toutri, Theibe, Theiphit and Relru are some of the popular tribal musical instruments. Reuben Mashangva, a popular Tangkhul folk artist, has been successfully popularising the traditional music of the Tangkhuls.
