I have bought a Cambodian Tro (lute) - it is the two-string version where the bow resides between the two strings. Can someone explain in a bit more detail how this instrument is played? Where are the hands positioned? Which strings are played as the bow moved back and forth between them? Does one string cover the treble and the other the bass? Do you apply pressure with the left hand alternately between the two different strings, or is the pressure applied to both strings at the same time?
