Description
The manjeera is a traditional percussion instrument of India. In its simplest form, it is a pair of small hand cymbals. It is also known as manjeera, tala, jalra, khartal or kartal. Manjira has a significant importance in Gujarati Folk Music. Initially, Manjira was played in Aarti of God & Goddess. In Gujarat, Manjira possesses significant importance & plays in Bhajan, Santvani & Dayro. Though the Manjira is a Small Metal Instrument, it produces a sweet tinkling sound when struck together while doing Jugalbandhi with other Instruments. However, Manjira Playing is not an easy task, it requires a lot of Riyaaz (Practice) & deep knowledge of Sur & Taal. They often accompany folk or devotional music. It is used in various religious ceremonies in India, especially bhajans. This is a folk music instrument and is handcrafted by the artisans of village India. The folk music instruments are usually meant for sale in the rural local markets. The artisans use very simple and age-old tools to make folk musical instruments. Almost all folk music instruments therefore lack the finesse that we often see in classical instruments.
