Description
Musical Instruments of India
|
Brass Instruments Ghugroos
are globular bells each about 2 cm in diameter. Dancers
string them on ropes or sew them onto cloth or leather
strips and wear them around ankles. Larger ghungroos may
be strung on a circle of wire and shaken as
accompaniment to a song. They are often fixed to other
instruments to add to the sound. The bells are
decorative in themselves and the cords strung are often
bright and finished with tassels.
There are two common forms
of the ghungharu. The traditional form is merely
a number of bells woven together on a string. However
today it is common to find them stitched to a padded
cushion. This may then be strapped to the feet of a
dancer. Both forms are shown in the accompanying
illustration.
