Uses
The drummer is typically a well-recognized member of the audience and beats rhythms at the beginning and end of a performance, to mark singing phrases, and as a means of appreciation for a performance. It is the largest of the set of drums used in ca trù- the Vietnamese traditional chamber music. Performers also use it in a chèo or hát văn.
