Himachal Pradesh, a state of India located in the country's northwest corner, has a rich music and dance culture. Music is an integral part of their life, which includes many kinds of folk songs. Himachali people never miss a chance of singing their favorite song on occasion. The folk instruments have a significant role in their life right from birth till death. Their simple way of life also reflects in their pure music. Usually, accompaniment is not needed for folk songs. But locals enjoy the merriment of these songs with their traditional musical instruments.

Ransingha is a traditional instrument used all over Himachal Pradesh for special occasions like festivals, welcoming VIPs, marriages, etc. It is also called an Indian Trumpet. This instrument is made of two brass and copper metal curves. The instrument consists of two parts, which are joined together. Both parts are in the shape of the English alphabet C. One part is thicker and broader than the other part. Mr. Singh from Himachal Pradesh has his workshop named Jai Maa Shikari Shop. For many years he has been in this business, having a small workshop.
