👉 Risibles are a type of musical instrument that is often used in folk and traditional music. They typically have multiple strings, usually made from bamboo or other natural materials, and are tuned to a specific pitch using a tuning fork. The name "risible" comes from the Italian word "risato," meaning "to sing." Risibles were originally used by musicians to play sacred songs in churches and on stage. They are often associated with Italy, particularly in the region of Apulia.
