Jas D101 Beginner Tabla Set

D101 Beginner Tabla Set description:

The JAS 0101 Beginner Tabla Set tablas are great for pupils under 10 years. These are perfectly playable half-size tabla, suitable for small hands. The set comes complete with cushions, covers and tuning hammer.

The smaller drum, played with the dominant hand, is called Dayan (“right”), and the larger drum, played with the other hand, is called Bayan (“left”). The Bayan has a much deeper bass tone than the Dayan. The playing technique for both drums uses the fingers and palms in various configurations to create a wide variety of different types of sounds. On the Bayan the heel of the hand is also used to apply pressure, or in a sliding motion, so that the pitch is changed during the sound’s decay.
