rebab

This rebab is an exact counterpart of the rebec formerly popular in Western Europe.

Orpheus is holding an instrument, which appears to be a rebab, against his chin, in the act of bowing and stopping the strings.

The bow developed very slowly in Europe and remained a crude instrument as long as it was applied to the rebab and its hybrids.

He was very angry when told to go, and broke a rebab we had given him to play on, for he could both play and sing well.

We have had some singing to-night, and playing of the rebab.
