How do I find a note that is not in the tuning?

Zither-type instruments are tuned to a scale, so notes outside it are played by pressing the string behind the bridge to raise its pitch – or by retuning a bridge before the piece.

Why do some notes appear on several strings?

The scale repeats every octave, so the same note name returns on higher strings. Choose an octave to see which string gives the exact pitch.

What is the range of this tuning?

From D2 on the lowest string to D6 on the highest.
