Extinct Art of India – Tabla Tarang
Please Note : Tabla Tarang Library/Instruments works with Native Instruments Kontakt 5.4.2 or Higher (Full Version).
Introduction: You already heard the “Magical Sound of Tabla” in our previous release which was performed by master tabla artist ” Jagannath Singh”. we have already discussed the effect of black ink spot on tabla which makes this instrument capable of producing one note higher than the main pitched note (Psyco-acoustic issue). Magical Sound Of 13 unique hand made “Tablas”
There are many Tuned Percussion Instruments available in the market.We can say market is quite saturated but here is the extinct art of India “Tabla Tarang”. Most of the people in India have heard about this instrument but have not seen any performance happening live. Sadly , Authentic playing is no more seen. Solo Tabla Tarang Recreating this art was adventurous and fun. We teamed up with tabla artist and tabla makers and discussed the plan and finally we have sampled 13 tabla drums not with just the magical black ink spot sound but also the two other tuned sounds “Ta” and “Tin” ,which are produced by hitting at the rim/chanti and middle portion/maidan of tabla drum.
