The Rudra veena (Sanskrit: रुद्र वीणा) (also spelled Rudraveena[1] or Rudra vīnā[2])—also called Bīn in North India[3]—is a large plucked string instrument used in Hindustani Music, especially dhrupad.[2] It is one of the major types of veena played in Indian classical music, notable for its deep bass resonance.[4]
The rudra veena is seen in temple architecture predating the Mughals. It is also mentioned in court records as early as the reign of Zain-ul Abidin (1418–1470),[3] and attained particular importance among Mughal court musicians.[3] Before Independence, rudra veena players, as dhrupad practitioners, were supported by the princely states; after Independence and the political integration of India, this traditional patronage system ended.[5] With the end of this traditional support, dhrupad's popularity in India declined, as did the popularity of the rudra veena.[5] However, in recent years, the rudra veena has seen a resurgence in popularity, driven at least partly by interest among non-Indian practitioners.[5][6]
