Santoori tells about Daf
Daf
with its different transcription and transliteration forms like Daff,
dap, def, deff, defi, daff, duff, refers to round single-headed frame
drum connected with oriental cultures.
The drum had been widely used in Folk and entertainment music. In
Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran and elsewhere it has historical and
contemporary associations with Sufi rituals. In varying forms it is
found in West Asia, the Caucasus, the Iranian plateau, Central Asia and
south-eastern Europe. The drum is used in a wide variety of settings:
folk music, art music, entertainment and dance music and Sufi religious
rituals.
Kurdish type of frame drum is historically related to the pre-Islamic
Iranian dap. Variant examples appear in Armenia and among the Uighurs of
Central Asia (dap); in Azerbaijan (ghaval, gaval); in Turkey, Albania,
Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Macedonia (def); in Greece, particularly
the north (defi).
