Piri, unlike Bairami and Jog, makes use of the frets in the
lower region of the neck of the dut-r, and the open note of
the ist string assumes some importance as a starting note
for ascending movement. The 4th above the open note of
the ist string is taken as the finalis. This mode is
common in Logari music (see below).

5There is evidence
were already to Herat
in use in suggest that
on a the
small reba-b
scale and the tabla
at the
beginning of the 20th century. It appears likely that
these instruments were brought to Herat by Pushtuns and
used for a style of Pushtun music, as distinct from the
maqa[m-s of the Tajik population.
6The type of harmonium referred to here is the small
protable model with bellows at the back. It is pumped
with the left hand and played with the right. The range
is just over three octaves; it has a normal piano-type
keyboard. This instrument was introduced by Christian
missionaries into India, and probably reached Afghanistan
by the late 19th century. In Herat it is called armoni5,
or pianu.
