This stringed instrument is shaped like a cone with a large soundhole. The arpa (harp) is of Western origins and has become highly popular in Peru, especially in the Andes, where it is widely played for its versatile ability to come up with high-pitched sounds.

The harp has been modified and adapted in several regions, both in shape and tuning.
