Humans have always been drawn to creating music. Music has been part of every known culture, past and present and we’re pretty sure that where there is music you’ll find dancers. Dancers share a unique bond with the music. For many of us it is our muse and inspiration for much of what we do.

So it’s only natural that we here at Tribe Nawaar have dedicated a section of our marketplace to offering some classic instruments like doumbeks, frame drums and tambourines, all perfect for Middle Eastern musicians and dancers. You may also love our authentic snake charmers, castanets and mizmar sets!

Check out our newest additions for a new and unique instrument to incorporate into your music or dance!
