ZARB
The beautiful, melodic sounds of the Zarb
are unlike any other drum. It is an ancient persian goblet
shaped drum, made from Walnut or Mulberry wood, and covered
with a goat skin which is glued in place.
In the 20th century Teherani revolutionised the Zarb, forming
a school of percussion, and making many changes to traditional
Zarb drumming, so much so that it has gone from a rural instrument
to art music.
The persian frame drum known as the Daf, was for many centuries
the favourite drum of the persian court. While the zarb was
played by peasants.

In the days of the Persian empire the Zarb - also known
as the tombak - came second to the frame drum (Daf), which
was favoured at court, and formed part of the traditional
music ensemble. The Zarb preferred by travelling musicians,
and farmers, who drummed at festivals.
Only in the 20th century has the Zarb come into it's own,
from a simple rhythmic accompaniment to a performance in itself.
The Zarb is characterised by melodic rhythms, with the performer
displaying his skill with improvisations - playing not only
the rhythm, but also the solo and the melody.
The Zarb is also notable for the rhythmic roll, which is different
to usual drumrolls.
