Description

The drum is a member of the percussion group of musical instruments. In the Hornbostel-Sachs classification system, it is a membranophone. Drums consist of at least one membrane, called a drumhead or drum skin, that is stretched over a shell and struck, either directly with the player's hands, or with a percussion mallet, to produce sound. There is usually a resonant head on the underside of the drum. Other techniques have been used to cause drums to make sound, such as the thumb roll. Drums are the world's oldest and most ubiquitous musical instruments, and the basic design has remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years.

நூதன முரசு அல்லது டிரம்சு (drum) தாளக்கருவிகளில் ஒன்றாகும். இது தோற்கருவிகளின் வகைப்பாட்டில் அடங்கும். முரசுகளில் குறைந்தது ஒருபுறமாவது ஒலியெழுப்பும் தோற்பரப்பு, முரசுத்தலை இருக்கும். இது ஓர் கூட்டின் மீது இழுத்துக் கட்டப்பட்டிருக்கும். இதன்மீது வாசிப்பவர் தமது கைகளைக் கொண்டோ முரசுக் கம்பு கொண்டோ அடித்து ஒலி எழுப்புவார். பொதுவாக ஒத்ததிர்வு கலன் முரசின் கீழ்ப்பகுதியில் அமைக்கப்பட்டிருக்கும். இது முரசுத்தலையை விட சற்றே குறைந்த கட்டையில் சுருதி கூட்டப்பட்டிருக்கும். தவிரவும் வந்திரதம் போன்று கைகளைத் தேய்த்து ஒலி எழுப்பும் வேறு சில திறன்களும் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன. முரசுகளும் பேரிகைகளும் உலகின் மிகவும் தொன்மையான இசைக் கருவிகளாகும். பல நூற்றாண்டுகளாக இவற்றின் அடிப்படை வடிவமைப்பு மாறவில்லை.
