Kani



    Kani ro Narr (per. Nai) has been the common traditional instrument of Kutch and Sind, Baluchistan of Pakistan, and of Iran and Turkey.
        In Sindhi, Narr is the generic name for all kinds of reed plants, the stalks of which are hollowed or can be hollowed by removing the pulp from inside. The Narr instrument is made from what is known as ‘sacho narr’( the genuine reed) ore kangore which grows shere water is permanently available. The valley of the Kech river in the Makran District ( of Baluchistan) produces one of the best varieties of the reed which has supplied the instrument for the regions of Pakistan and also to Iran and Turkey.
         In Kutch ,Narr or Kani is not so familiar to the public as there are only three performers of it at the moment, and they play only on some religious occasions, fairs and festivals.
