The Dholak used here is uniformly cylindrical made out of Bija tree wood. In many of the villages it has been noticed that singers and instruments players are called from different neighboring villages to form a group. It is tough to find a complete group from one village.
Abstract
The collection consists of audio recordings along with related photographs and videos. The project was mainly based on recording 20 hours of the Tejaji Ballad sung by the Mali (gardeners) community of the village Thikarda. But along with Thikarda, nightlong recordings were also done in some 23 other villages of Hadoti and surrounding region for a comparative study.
