===Vegetarian and vegan substitutions===

Since vegetarians and vegans were and are important constituents of Talman societies, many composers allowed vegetarian and vegan substitutions for nonvegan instruments. Often, non-~~vegan~~ instruments were considered interchangeable with their ~~vegan~~ counterparts, and veg(etari)an composers refused to use ~~nonvegan~~ instruments at all. This shifted the balance against larger wooden fixed-pitch instruments such as the viola organista, which required animal glue to manufacture and repair.

Preferred ~~material~~ for ~~string~~

Preferred vegetarian materials for strings were steel, copper, or cellulose from plant fibers, instead of animal gut, before the invention of modern synthetic materials.

(Ⓥ is shown next to vegan ~~instruments~~.)

Horse hair in bows are considered vegetarian but not vegan.
