Shehnai

Shehnai is a classical North Indian music genre that originated in the Indian subcontinent. It is a double-reed wind instrument that is similar to an oboe, and is traditionally used in Hindu weddings and other auspicious occasions. The sound of the Shehnai is said to be very soothing and calming, and it is often used to create a festive atmosphere. The music is usually slow and melodic, and is often accompanied by tabla and other percussion instruments.
