Discover the Rich History and Culture of Albania through the Skipetar Instrument

Skipetar (also known as Skippetar or Skipitar) is a traditional Albanian stringed instrument that resembles a lute. It has a pear-shaped body with a short neck and three or four pairs of strings. The instrument is typically played with a pick, and is used to accompany folk songs and other forms of traditional music in Albania.

Skipetar is an important part of Albanian culture and heritage, and is often featured in traditional folk music ensembles. The instrument has also been recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage of humanity, and efforts have been made to preserve and promote the tradition of Skipetar playing in Albania and beyond.
