Hasapi (Template:Langx), also written as kacapi (Template:Langx), hapitan (Template:Langx), and kulcapi (Template:Langx), is a two-stringed lute played by the Batak people of the Indonesian island of Sumatra.[1] The plucked instrument was used for Zere religious rituals and is now used as part of the orchestra accompanying the traveling theater Opera Batak.
