Jodia Pava (Gujarati: જોડિયા પાવા), also known as Jodiya Pava, is a traditional wooden flute-like musical instrument used by folk musicians in Gujarat, Punjab, Sindh, Rajasthan and Balochistan.[1]
The instrument is also known as Mattiyan, Jorhi, Pava Jorhi, Do Naali, Donal, Giroh, Satara or Nagoze.[2]
Jodia Pava consists of two connected flutes, one of which provides the melody. The flutes may either be joined together or held separately. Continuous airflow is required to play both flutes. The instrument originally consisted of two flutes of equal length, but over time one became shorter. The longer flute is traditionally referred to as the male flute and the shorter one as the female flute. The instrument can be used to perform different melodies.[3][4]
The instrument is used in traditional and folk music in Punjab and has also become associated with bhangra music. It is also used in Rajasthani and Baloch folk music. Notable performers associated with the instrument include Sindhi musicians Khamiso Khan, Ustad Misri Khan Jamali and Akbar Khamiso Khan, as well as Punjabi folk singer Gurmeet Bawa.[5][6][7]
Notable Gujarati Jodia Pava musicians include Musa Ghulamjat[8] and Nurmamad Sodha.[9]
