What are the tabla drums used for?

It is a pair of hand drums used in North India, about a foot high and having a very resonant tone due to an application on the skin which is made in a special way to control the resonance. One of the drums is smaller and higher-pitched, usually around 5 inches in diameter, another giving a much lower bass tone. It is one of the world's only drums with a clearly defined musical pitch. Its playing style is very complex, having a series of mnemonic syllables corresponding to about 50 individual types of sounds. Two distinct pitches are possible on the smaller drum, one produced by an open stroke, another by placing the fourth finger on the edge of the black application and striking the skin with the second finger while keeping the others clear of the drum's surface. The tones are separated by 1 less than an octave(if the higher harmonic is D, the lower harmonic is the E below). Google it if you're still not sure; I might have left something out. Hope this helps!
