अवनद्व वाद्य और चमड़े के वाद्य ( ताल वाद्य ; झिल्ली के कम्पन वाले वाद्ययंत्र )

A set of this Indian drum instrument majorly consists of the following tabla parts: – two drums, the left drum and the right drum.

Dayaa and Bayaa in Tabla Set:

The drum that is played by the right hand is called the ‘dayaa’ (or the table) and the one played by the left hand is called the ‘dagga’ (or the ‘bayaa’).

In them, Tabla has smaller diameter than the Dagga. For that reason, Tabla produces a high pitch sound (treble component). Therefore, many tabla players keep two or more tabla with different diameters to produce different sound pitches.

The pakhavaj is a barrel-shaped, two-headed drum, originating from the Indian subcontinent, a variant and descendant of the older mridangam. The kendang of Maritime Southeast Asia is a distant relative of the pakhawaj and other South Asian double-headed drums.
