BASIC INFORMATION ON THAVIL

The Thavil is a large (47 cm long and 30 cm in diameter), heavy and very powerful double drum from southern India. It is traditionally used for accompanying the piercing Nageshwaram at open-air temple festivals. The modern Thavil has a body that is surrounded by a steel ring. The two skins are separately fixed to this ring with leather or plastic straps. The bass skin is struck by a short wooden stick, the high skin with thimbles that are put on the fingertips.

All prices include 19 % German sales tax.
Customers outside the European Common Market get a reduction of 19 %.
