CLICK HERE for a link to The Bodhran Book which can be ordered from Elderly Instruments. It is a wonderful tutorial, even if they do hold the tipper wrong.........That is a joke aimed at my cyberlove, the fair Alison. If you use the search engine on Elderly's site, I am sure they have the video as well.

The key to the bodhran is practice and paying attention to the details of technique. It is not hard to learn how to beat it in a rhythmic way. It is very difficult and requires dedication to learn all of its subtleties. You will learn all you need to know from Hanigan's book and tape.

All the best,

Mick
