HISTORY

Daf also known as Dâyere and Riq is a Middle Eastern (mainly Iranian) frame drum musical instrument, used in popular and classical music in Iran and Pakistan. It is also used in Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, many regions of Georgia, as well as in parts of India and Russian polar regions. It is also popular among Balkans, Bukharan Jews, Caucasians, Kurds, and Macedonians.
It traditionally has a round wooden frame (although in the modern era it may also be made of metal), jingles, and a thin, translucent head made of fish or goat skin (or, more recently, a synthetic material). The sound is produced by hitting the membrane with either hand – the left hand, which also holds the Daf, strikes the edges, and the right hand strikes the center. The right-hand fingers are fastened about their neighbours and suddenly released (like the action of finger-snapping) to produce loud, rapid, sharp sounds.

Methodology

I PROVIDE PC MUSIC SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS 64 BITS FOR RHYTHM READING WITH REAL DAF SOUNDS, WHICH MAKES LEARNING EASIER.
YOU CAN LEARN THE RHYTHMS BY LISTENING TO THEM AS THEY SOUND, YOU CAN LEARN TO READ THEM BY MUSIC AND PLAY THEM AND YOU CAN PLAY THE RHYTHMS AT THE SAME TIME AS THE SOFTWARE AND ALSO CHANGE THE SPEED OF PLAYING.
