Gio Israel Persian Essentials Percussion [WAV Beatmaker Presets]
The Persian Essentials series by Gio Israel exposes the hidden sounds of ancient Persian music.
The history of musical development in Iran dates back thousands of years and expands through various neighboring cultures, making it one of the richest and most influential musical regions of the old world. Iran’s classical music continues to function as a spiritual tool, as it has throughout history, and much less of a recreational activity, as it’s rich in complexity, melodic motions, scales, and tunes.
In this pack, we present two fundamental Middle Eastern traditional percussion instruments: The ancient frame drum Daf (or Dafif) and the goblet drum known as the Tombak (Persian:تمبک), tonbak (تنبک), orzarb. Learn more about these instruments in the accompanying story below.
