Brass Hand Cymbals - 2.5 Inches | Manjira Taal/ Talam with Rope Bhajan/ Jalra for Kirtan/ 115 Gms

Since ancient times, followers of Lord Krishna have played these exquisitely crafted manjeera cymbals. All bhajans that have emerged from Hinduism use the high-pitched percussion sound that they produce. Indian folk music heavily uses the instrument manjira. It is also referred to as manjeera, tala, tallam, jalra, khartal, nattuvangam and kartal. The main purpose of manjira is to accompany Indian Gods' aartis. Brass Nattuvangam/Tallam/Jalra/Manjira is a small cymbal instrument that produces a type of music that accompanies Bharatanatyam and other South Indian classical dance forms. It is also a vital part of many Bhajans and similar sloka recitals that depend on rhythm, and adds a touch of classical elegance to it.
