It is one of the oldest instrument in the world. It consists of china bowls filled with water and struck by means of two cane sticks. In olden days, since china clay bowls were not available, artists used to play this instrument with metal bowls. Each bowl can be tuned to the desired frequency by varying the quantity of water in it.
These bowls are placed in a semi - circle arrangement around the player and played. The Jalatarang has a pleasant characteristic tone and can be used for playing Indian Classical as well as light music. | | Exponents | Please login to view this information |
