The harp is a chordophonic musical instrument made of wood and sheet metal, made up of the soundboard, head and pegs that tighten thirty strings. It was introduced in the Yaqui culture from the beginning of the evangelization at the beginning of the 17th century.<\/p>\n
In Yaqui symbolism, this instrument is a creation of God, it is used only in the musical accompaniment of the Pascola dance, in which both the dance itself and the Pascola itself are associated with evil spirits, enchantments and legends that suggest images forged by a medieval European mentality, charged with magic. Its function is to harmonize the melody played by the violin with chords and sounds, as well as to mark the rhythm of the son, which will have to be opposed by the rhythm of the tapping of the soles of the feet on the ground and the repercussions of the ten\u00e1baris that he carries the Pascola on his legs (Islas, 2017). Every time the instrument is played, it is tuned according to the pitch in which the son or songs for the dance are to be played.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":588,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-325","tnc_col_310_item","type-tnc_col_310_item","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tnc_tax_118-musical-instrument","tnc_tax_87-musical-instruments-mexico-ethnic-groups","tnc_tax_87-religion-and-culture-sonora-mexico-state-holy-week","tnc_tax_87-religious-dance-mexico","tainacan-item-single-page"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/325","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tnc_col_310_item"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=325"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/325\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":590,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/325\/revisions\/590"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/588"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=325"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
