Classical Indian hand percussion damru is a well-known folk instrument for drumming in all over India. Damru is mainly made from wood, metal or skull with both ends covered by animal skin (goat skin) crossed tied-up strings or cords made from cotton, leather or jute. Damru is an hour glass shaped drum, typically played with the bare hands, a player waves the instrument by twisting the wrist back and forth. A damru player adjusts the pitch of the instrument by adjusting the pressure that is applied to these strings.
