BASIC INFORMATION ON THAVIL

The Thavil is a large, 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, which is made of Wahewood, that is surrounded by a steel ring. The two skins are separately fixed to this ring with steal tapes which are coated with plastic material. Both skins can be seperately tuned. The bass skin is struck by a short wooden stick, the high skin with thimbles that are put on the fingertips.
