What's Darbuka?
Instruments similar to the darbuka, of various shapes and sizes, were used by civilizations in Anatolia, Mesopotamia, and Central Asia in ancient times. In later periods these changed and developed, but continued to be used in the same areas. The instrument is known by different names at different times and in different places. These include: dümbek, dümbelek, deplek, deblek, dönbek, tömbek, darbeki and debulak. This percussion instrument was originally made with baked pulp, although this increasingly gave way to such materials as copper, aluminum, various metal compounds, plasters, wood and glass fibers of the porcelain. Generally speaking, the darbuka resembles a pipe with a narrow end and one wide and was formerly covered in leather, although synthetic materials are now preferred. The skin is passed over a band and the instrument is tuned by expanding the skin with screws. The body bears different forms of decoration, and these change from region to region.
