Dhol-Drums Punjabi Bhangra Black Mango Wood Dholak Dholki Gidda Dance Beltblack

The Dhol is a traditional North Indian instrument made from a large wooden
shell. Each side of the Dhol has Goat Skins covering the open ends, one for the
bass and one for the treble. The skins are laced together with one piece of
cotton rope threaded through the edges of both skins. This is the more
authentic way. The Modern day trend with Dhols is to have a Plastic Western
Drum Skin on the treble end, tensioned by metal nut adjusted hooks. It is
extremely loud and is played with sticks made from cane. The stick used to play
the bass side of the drum is a bit thicker (roughly about 10 mm in diameter)
and is bent in a quarter-circular arc on the end that strikes the drum. The
other stick is much thinner and flexible and used to play the higher note end
of the drum. The drum is slung over the neck of the player with a strap usually
made up of ropes or woven cloth. The surface of the wooden barrel is in some
cases decorated with engraved or painted patterns. The Dhol is a common
Percussion Instrument that is used to accompany Punjabi Folk Music. It
originates from the North India Region . The dhol is a rather bulky
double-sided barrel drum played mostly as an accompanying instrument to the
traditional Punjabi dance of Bhangra, the traditional dance of Gujarat and
Raas. Package Contains BLACK Mango Wood - Dhol Drum One Pair of Sticks To Play
