Mazhar
Mazhar is also an Arabic male name meaning "appearance"''. The mazhar is a large, heavy tambourine used in Arabic music.The mazhar's frame is generally made out of wood. The instrument's brass jingles are quite large (4-5 inches / 10-13 cm in diameter). It is played with a shaking technique that gives it a raucous sound. Its single head is considerably thicker than that of the riq, its smaller cousin.The Egyptian percussionist Hossam Ramzy is a notable performer of the mazhar.
