c11.2
MOST of the early Indian musical instruments remain still in use. Since the time of the Mahomedan invasion, about a thousand years ago, some Arabian and Persian instruments have been adopted, and have become almost naturalised; but their use has never become universal, and is mostly confined to the North of India or to Mussulman musicians.
