Darf Erfan - Persian frame drum
The daf is not only played in Sufi music, but also at many festivals and ritual celebrations, where it is often found in large ensembles. Its percussive sound ranges from the delicate and subtle to the nuanced and voluminous. This frame drum achieves this through the countless small metal rings that are attached to the inside of the frame and sometimes strike powerfully against the skin while playing. Its spiritual background can also be recognized by the fact that all elements of this large and light drum are assigned a deeper meaning. The skin symbolizes the animal kingdom, the frame the plants and the rings the world of minerals.
This high-quality, lightweight daf is the perfect entry-level instrument for discerning musicians. The slightly better synthetic skin always sounds bright and clear and the low weight of this frame drum also allows for longer, effortless playing.
