Tag: Tabor

Tabor, or tabret, (“Tabwrdd” = Welsh) refers to a portable snare drum played with one hand. The word “tabor” is simply an English variant of a Latin-derived word meaning “drum” – cf. tambour (Fr.), tamburo (It.). It has been used in the military as a marching instrument, and has been used as accompaniment in parades and processions.
A tabor has a cylindrical wood shell, two skin heads tightened by rope tension, a leather strap, and an adjustable gut snare. Each tabor has a pitch range of about an octave: the larger the tabor, the lower the pitch. It is played by just one stick, which usually strikes the snare head. The tabor is suspended by a strap from the forearm, somewhere between the elbow and wrist. When played, the shell is virtually parallel with the ground.
The tabor is most widely known as accompaniment for the pipe and other small flutes, and most famously as the percussive element in the “pipe and tabor” one man band configuration. Photos of this can be seen at Harms…
