Yaoshang Pala - photo by Poknapham
A vibrant group of traditional male performers called nupa pala. The drum is called pung (pronounced as pooong) and the pairs of brass discs with the thick red tassles are called kohr-taal (played by males) or mandilaa (played by women). The music builds up an amazing, deafening crescendo.
