Description: | The Sora distinguish between song, king king; dance, tong sing; and music, kading-pane. The tudum provides the deepest notes in the Sora kading-pane ensemble of drums and oboes. The band always accompanies dance in Sora ritual festivals.
Tudum, kettledrum. The body (shell) of the drum is made of earthenware and the head is of cow hide. These components were commisioned by the drum maker from local community of potters and tanners in the village of Gumma in Gajapathi. The head consists of two skins, the upper one cut away to form an outer ring with holes for the lacing. The drum has a rope carrying handle. The membrane is struck with a pair of rubber drum sticks, teruddum, made of lorry tyres (2004.538.2 and 2004.538.3).
