Tabla is a membranophone percussion instrument originating from the Indian subcontinent, consisting of a pair of drums, used in traditional, classical, popular and folk music. It has been a particularly important instrument in Hindustani classical music since the 18th century, and remains in use in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The name Tabla likely comes from Tabl, the Persian and Arabic word for drum. However, the ultimate origin of the musical instrument is contested by scholars, some tracing it to West Asia, others tracing the evolution of indigenous musical instruments of the Indian subcontinent.

Learning Tabla or not even Tabla but learning classical music is the true path of spirituality. So in this course we are trying to teach you Tabla. It is always better to learn any classical instrument from a guru. But here it is not exact learning. We will teach you the fingering. Also various bols, Kaydas and other playing material of tabla will be provided and all the things in Tabla will be compiled. You have to check one page and try to practice that particular thing there on that page (if you have a Tabla). There are many courses and it is your choice about choosing a particular course. You can do all courses as well. Hope that you enjoy this course. At the completion of this full course you will get a Certificate too. All the best. Be free to join.
