The chrotta, was a musical instrument played in the British Isles, whose exact description is contested. According to Irish historian Gratton Flood, was a small harp played with a bow. The instrument could be rested on knees or on a table. Flood notes that the historian Gerbert had described the chrotta as an oblong instrument with six strings, four of which on a fingerboard and two off of it. Historian Carl Engel noted that a 6th-century CE Italian writer, Venantius Fortunatus, had mentioned the "Chrotta Britanna" in a poem, but did not mention any bow. ==See also== *Crwth, a similar Welsh instrument 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chrotta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
