Jori, Jodi, Dhamma, or Jorhi (sometimes Jori-Pakhawaj) is a South Asian percussion instrument made up of two individual drums. The Jori originates from the Punjab region of South Asia.[1] Historically, the Jori has accompanied Gurbani Kirtan.[1][2] Prominent exponents of the Jori include Ustad Sukhvinder Singh "Pinky".[3] Bhai Baldeep Singh, Sardar Jasdeep Singh, Bhai Surdarshan Singh and Bhai Gian Singh Namdhari.[1]
In its construction, the Jori is similar to the Tabla. The key differences being the use of a larger dayan/chathoo (also known as Poorra) (treble drum), and a wooden barrel-shaped bayan/dagga (bass drum) with atta (dough) instead of the syahi/gub, which is called a "Dhamma" .[4]
