#bodhran #cutom #drums
This is the custom bodhran/frame drum I designed in 1999 in conjunction with British drum maker David Nuttall of Jalapeno custom drums. I called it the Toforan. The clip is from an artist session for Wendell Kimbrough, recording 'tofs' for producer Dan Wheeler.
The name 'Toforan' was inspired by Hebrew word 'toph', being the instrument commonly translated as tambourine in biblical texts.
