Hi there! Do you know what a guitar is? It’s a musical instrument that has strings that you strum with your hand. Well, a zither is kind of like a guitar, but instead of strumming the strings with your hand, you pluck them with your fingers.
A zither is a long, narrow instrument that lays flat on a table or your lap. It has lots of strings stretched out across it, and each string makes a different sound when you pluck it. You can play all sorts of songs on a zither, just like you can on a guitar.
Some people think that the zither comes from ancient times, and it has been played in many different countries all around the world. Today, people still enjoy playing and listening to the beautiful sounds of the zither.
