Gopi Chand The gopichand, also, known as gopiyantra, is a very popular folk instrument of Bengal. It is an instrument that is much used by the wandering minstrels known as the Baul.There are several variations on the construction. The length may be as small as one foot or as long as three feet, however 2-3 feet is the norm. It consists of a length of bamboo that is split through most of the length. The two ends are pried apart and attached to a resonator. This resonator may be a coconut, gourd, metal container or a hollowed out cylindrical section of wood. The open end of the resonator is covered with taught skin and a string penetrates the centre. This string is attached to a reinforced section in the centre. This string then passes through the hollow of the resonator and attaches to a tuning peg located in the bamboo.

History :

• Bongo Drum Bongo is the term for a variety of small drums, derived from African roots, most likely in Cuba around 1900.
• It consists of a pair of unequal sized small drums that are joined together.
• The smaller drum is called the "male" or minor drum, while the larger is the "female" or major drum.
• Bongos are an integral part of Latin percussion, particularly as a solo instrument.
• They are mainly played sitting down, held between the knees.
• In the 1920's the bongos were lower tuned than they are today, and played with a technique more reminiscent of conga drumming, including tabla-like pitch changes.
• The skins were tacked on, and to maintain the tuning the "bongocero" would use a small charcoal brazier which he kept by his feet.
• The modern bongo is tuned much higher as befitting its role as the soloist in the Latin rhythm section.
• The modern playing technique is based on a stroking pattern called the "Martillo" (hammer). It is available in the standard Martillo bongo pattern.
