Chenda is a native drum used either in art forms like Kathakali or played independently. Making this percussion instrument is a long and painstaking process.
The edanthala (left face) and valanthala (right face) is made up of bull skin. The bull skin is dried for 3 to 4 days for the lasting of the face. The dry hide is fastened on hollow wooden rings - cut out from the trunk of a palm tree - using a special gum.
The skin is then secured to the cylindrical frame (kutti) and tuned by pulling ropes through holes pierced on both the faces, thus stretching the heads. The skin is then secured to the cylindrical frame called kutti made up of jackwood and tuned by pulling ropes through holes pierced on both the faces, thus stretching the heads. The stretching of the heads helps to generate good sound from the chenda.
The Chenda is mainly played in temples, churches festivals and as an accompaniment in the religious art forms of Kerala. The chenda is used as an accompaniment for Kathakali, Koodiyattam, Kannyar Kali, Theyyam and among many forms of dances and rituals in Kerala.
