Introduction
• Tarrañolas are percussion instruments. They are made with two rectangular strips of wood with a small joint, which are held between the fingers in such a way that one strip keeps fixed and the other can be moved.
• The origins of the instrument are not known , they might come from The Middle East.They are featured in “Las Cantigas de Santa María”, a collection of poems in honor of the Virgin by Alfonso X.
PROCESO DE CONSTRUCCIÓN
• 1º.- Types of Wood • 2º.- Processing of Wood• 3º.-Stencilling• 4º.- Cutting• 5º.- Planing and sanding• 6º.- Personalization• 7º.- Polishing• 8º.- Finishing
TYPES OF WOOD
• Bubinga, African palo santo and wengué were chosen in order to perceive the different sounds made by them.
PROCESSING OF WOOD
• The wood was taken to a carpenter’s shop to have it cut and ground since we don’t have the appropriate machines for processing it.
PLANING AND SANDING
• We shaped the tarrañolas in such a way that they were the same size and we also rabbeted them for the fingers’ perfect fit.
POLISHING
• We polished the pieces with grained sandpaper so that they felt perfect without any rough edges.
