A pair of Indian drums is a type of percussion instrument consisting of two drums, known as tabla (5 letters). The tabla is an ancient instrument that has been used in India for centuries. It is traditionally used in Hindustani classical music, as well as in popular and folk music. The two drums are made of wood and have a variety of sizes and shapes. The larger drum is called the dayan, and the smaller one is called the bayan. The tabla is played with the hands and fingers, and produces a range of sounds depending on the technique used.
