LAGGUTU
Laggutu is a percussive tool made of wood. It comprises two small box-like rectangle parts carved out of a solid piece of wood with
deeper indent on the upper desk. It is this shape that makes the sound of this instrument particularly unique. While played, laggutu is
placed on a platform and struck with two wooden drumsticks. The instrument is particularly popular in the southern areas of Azerbaijan.
