Kanjira

The kanjira is a small tambourine. It is made by stretching lizard skin over a wooden frame. The frame is about seven inches in diameter with one metal jingle mounted in it. The kanjira is very popular in South Indian classical performances. But since it is difficult to play it continuously for extended periods of time, it is not used as the main purcussion instrument, but as an additional one with Mridangam.
