Waltons 18in Gaelic Cross Bodhran
Description
Waltons 18" Gaelic Cross Bodhran Pack
DWP1930
Great entry-level bodhrán with celtic design. Handcrafted from the finest wood with real goatskin heads. Hardwood beater included with every bodhrán. The Waltons Bodhran Pack includes Bodhran, Carrying Case and Instructional DVD for a complete beginners package.
There are many theories about the origins of the bodhran, including its possible African or Asian roots or that it developed from the tambourine. The most likely explaination suggests that the instrument developed from a farm implement, based on its uncanny resemblance to the skin tray used for centuries on farms in Celtic countries for separating grain from chaff.
Despite occupying a pivotal position in the development of Irish traditional music and customs over the centuries the bodhran has only recently attained its deserves status as a proper traditional instrument.
This package includes the bodhran basics DVD tutor. Learn to play the essential rhythms of Irish music.
