16" Rosewood T-Bar Bodhran Drum

T-bar. Bolt tuning is hidden on the inside of the frame. Goatskin, rosewood. Includes a tipper and a tuning wrench.

Although most common in Ireland, the bodhran has gained popularity throughout the Celtic music world, especially in Scotland, Cape Breton, North mainland Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. In Southern England tambourines were a popular accompaniment to traditional dance music. In the South West of England a similar instrument made from the frame of a garden sieve was once popular and known as a Riddle Drum. In Cornish traditional music they are called a Crowdy-crawn,[9] the use of this instrument to store odds and ends led to the name also being used to mean 'miscellaneous'. The bodhran has also found application within the Celtic music of Spain, often accompanying the gaita gallega (Spanish bagpipes).
