Latin Percussion World Beat Bodhrans

Latin Percussion World Beat Bodhrans Description:

The bodhran (pronounced "bow-rawn") is a popular Irish frame drum that, for most of its history, served as a lowly husk sifter: that is, a pan used to shake the husks off grains. Gaelic peasants first converted the sifter to a musical instrument by replacing its wire mesh head with stretched goat skin.

Although the bodhran is the heart of traditional Irish music performed today, it was only as recent as the 1960's that it could be found outside southwestern Ireland. A bodhran is played by tucking the drum between the left arm and the chest, as the right hand beats the skin with a double-headed stick called a beater, tipper, or cipin (the Gaelic word for kindling).

Bodhrans are frame drums of Celtic decent. Supported by a cross section behind the head, the drum can either be played by hand or with a beater to produce a rich, deep tone. All World Beat Bodhrans are constructed from beautiful rosewood with natural goat skin heads and come with a convenient black nylon carry case and wood beater. They are available in 5 sizes.
