An igil (Tuvan- Ð¸Ð³Ð¸Ð») is a two-stringed Tuvan musical instrument, played by bowing the strings. (It is called ikili in Western Mongolia.) The neck and lute-shaped sound box are usually made of a solid piece of pine or larch. The top of the sound box may be covered with skin or a thin wooden plate.
The igil is held nearly upright when played, with the sound box of the instrument in the performer's lap, or braced against the top of the performer's boot. Playing technique involves touching the strings with the nails or fingertips, but without pressing them to the neck.
