Although know as King David's harp, the bguna is not actually a member of the harp family. It is in fact an oversized lyre with ten strings -usually plucked, sometimes strummed with a plectrum. It is probably the oldest musical instrument played in Ethiopia. One of today's masters of the bguna, Almu Aga, sings religious songs, traditional fables and folk tales, as well as his own poems
