Hinduism - What Is A Venu In Indian Music?

 

 

("bamboo") In Indian classical music, the bamboo flute is an essential instrument.

It is the signature instrument of the deity Krishna in Hindumythology, who utilized its lovely tones to call his followers (bhakta) to him and spend their evenings dancing on the Yamuna River's banks.
