Dholaki |
The dholaki is the smaller femine version of
the dhol. It is usually about 35 cm long, with heads 20 cm in
diameter. At weddings and religious gatherings. Women beat the
dholaki and sing. No auspicious occasion is complete without
songs sung to the accompaniment of this instrument. It's
common to see one woman beating the dholaki and another
striking the body of the drum with a spoon to add to the
music. Rarely, the drum is decorated with tassels.
