TABLA as musical instrument

The Tabla is actually a two drum set. The round and hollow, wooden drum is played with the correct hand. This drum is known as the Dayan, Dahina, or the Tabla. These Dayan are generally cut of toon or rosewood wood. They are around 9-10 inches tall and have a head breadth of 6 inches. Anticipate extensive variety in the head width, and be explicit about the breadth of your drum when requesting substitution heads. The base of the drum has a marginally bigger breadth that the open head. The "left hand" drum is marginally cone shaped and bowl formed. This drum can be made of metal, wood, or artistic. It is known as the Bayan, Duggi, or Dagga. These are around 10 inches high and have a head width of about 10 inches. The heads of both the dayan and the bayan are multi layered goatskin called a puddi. They are made on multi-layered films.
