Classical Kemenche

Dating back centuries, the Classical Kemence, also referred to as the Turkish Violin, boasts a rich history deeply rooted in the traditional music of the Ottoman Empire and the broader cultural heritage of Anatolia.

Typically constructed from wood and featuring three or four strings, the Classical Kemence’s unique design and construction contribute to its one-of-a-kind sound and expressive capabilities. Its resonating soundbox, curved bridge, and slender neck offer musicians a broad range of melodic possibilities and a palette of rich tonal colors.

Our carefully curated collection of Classical Kemence aims to preserve the tradition, artistry, and cultural significance of this remarkable instrument, ensuring it continues to enchant music enthusiasts for generations to come.
