The article describes the musical instruments of Nepal. In Nepal, there is a unique tradition that "baja" (musical instrument) refers to a collection of instruments with one instrument as a lead instrument. In English, the term band is used for 'Vadhya samuha' or 'baja'. It contains a list of bajas which are popular in different places like Lalitpur and Kathmandu. It includes 25 leaves of plates.
