Why is the barber's contribution important in the story of the shehnai?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because he guided an unpleasant sound into a sweeter instrument

The governing concept is the origin and development of the shehnai. The pungi was associated with an unpleasant, shrill sound and was banned in the royal court. A barber, who belonged to a family of professional musicians, modified the instrument by using a longer and broader pipe and making holes in it. His experiment produced a softer and more musical sound. This improved form came to be known as the shehnai and later gained an honoured place in classical music. Therefore, option A is correct: his small technical contribution began the instrument's transformation. Option B reverses his role, option C gives him an impossible achievement, and option D confuses the two separate stories in the chapter.
