TABLA

Tabla is a popular Indian percussion instrument used in Hindustani classical music as well as in folk and film music of the Indian subcontinent. The instrument consists of a pair of hand drums of contrasting sizes and timbres. The term tabla is derived from an Arabic word, tabl, which simply means "drum." In addition to the tabla, a weekly class of dhol, another traditional Indian drum, is also conducted.

Tabla is taught by a local teacher Mr. Prakash Kandasamy.
