Best Answer

A riq is an ethnic instrument. It looks much like a tamborine, however there are more sounds you can make with it. It is played verticle to the ground, with the right hand striking the head of the drum and the left controlling the jingles (it is held with no stand). Riq's are used in many ethnic drumming groups, and commonly found being played with a doumbek player or possible a frame drum or box drum (cajón).

Many modern (Arabic) words have been applied incorrectlyto ancient Egyptian drums - these include dumbek, tar, darabuka and riq. The ancient Egyptians did not speak Arabic as modern Egyptians do, so the connection is misleading and false.We do not have a record of the names used by the ancient Egyptians but we know that most of their drums were small and held in one hand while being beaten with the other. Larger drums like barrels were used in military contexts.
