Hi everyone!

Yes, Terry, sorry to say...it is animal skin.

This instrument was so impressive! The sound was very dramatic.

Brinn, I love their music, too! Everytime my husband and I see a concert of this style, we buy their CD. I love listening to it on Sunday mornings!

Thanks for your comments! #412700
