Daouli Drum

Description
The Daouli, also known as Davouli, Tavouli, or Timbano (Drum) is a cylindrical drum with two heads. It belongs in the category of membranophone instruments, and is made of wood, animal skin and string. Its diameter ranges from 25 cm – 1m, and its height from 20 cm – 60 cm. The Daouli is hung from the musician’s left shoulder and played with two “daouloksyla” (Daouli sticks): the one known as “kopanos” is thick and heavy, and held in the right hand, while the other is thinner, and known as “verga” or “vitsa”. The Daouli is usually constructed by the musician himself and, as a result, there are great variations in the instrument’s dimensions, the methods used to process the skin and the way the strings are tied. Different tones are produced depending on the size of the wooden cylinder that comprises the instrument’s frame. Its sound is also affected by the remaining materials, the skin and string, which make up the drumhead. The Daouli and the Zournas (a wind instrument, similar to the Clarinet) make up the so-called “zygia”: the traditional musical band of mainland Greece, ideal for open-air performances. The Daouli has been known since the Byzantine years. These days, it is the quintessential rhythm instrument of the Greek mainland. It is most commonly played during festivals, local fetes and weddings.
