Music And Dance

Folk music, usually referred to as traditional music, continues to play a significant part in Tajikistan's contemporary culture. The daf, rubab, and karnay are some of the instruments utilized in this nation's folk music. The daf is a wooden ring with an animal skin covering that is used as a percussion instrument. A row of metal hooks and rings are located inside the ring and create music when the instrument is struck.

A stringed instrument called a rubab resembles a lute. The karnay, a very long trumpet-like instrument made of brass or copper, is the last item. It is regarded as Tajikistan's national instrument. The traditional dances of Tajikistan serve a variety of functions, from ceremonial dances to dances meant to mimic nature.

Men and women typically dance in different styles, with men doing dances that are faster and more energizing than those performed by women. The fire dance, the sword dance, and the knife dance are a few examples of these dances.
