If you had to select 2 instruments,
what would your options be?

Thavil and tep, although I enjoy all percussive instruments.

IMHO, Duff...you need to qualify your question some what....For example you may classify different kind of concerts, say, vocal, instrument solo and catogories like that. The reason being, for a nagaswaram concert, I will never pick up a mridangam as an accompaniment, though, I would prefer the thavil and perhaps, a ghatam to go with it.
