The Yakshagana bells (Kannada: ಯಕ್ಷಗಾನ ತಾಳಗಳು) or Yakshagana cymbal are a pair of finger bells made of a special alloy (traditional five metal) used in Yakshagana (Badagu Thittu). They are used by the singer to keep the tempo and rhythm of Yakshagana performances. The pitch of the bells are generally very high and do not match the pitch of the singer; as such, singers may use bells of any key.
