Armenian Folk Music The Dhol Zurna Are The Mast in Any Armenian Folk Songs The davul or dhol, is a large double-headed cylindrical drum. It is widely used in Armenia and many other countries in the Middle East. The davul is made by joining the ends of a large wooden plank and fitting circular hoops internally at both ends of the cylinder. The heads of the Dhol davul are usually made of shaved sheepskin or goatskin, one being thicker than the other. The Dhol davul player uses two beaters: a heavy beater called jglun (or tokmak) used on the thicker head, and a smaller lighter beater used on the other head. |
