	Doyra Artist Abbos Kosimov - Percussion of Uzbekistan
		Doyra is used as a major musical instrument in the ritual ceremonies of Uzbeks (long before the spread of Islam) that have remained up to now and are participated only by women.
		Before the Doyra was used to coordinate simultaneousness of words, phrases and movements made by everybody in religious ceremonies whereas later it became a men-played instrument to accompany other musical instruments and create rhythmical adaptation.
		The diameter of Doyras used at the beginning and in the middle of the past century was rather big and the sound was dull.

		You can often hear about doyra that it isn't an attendant instrument, but a solo one.
