Year 1411, on a cold April's night, the Dominican friar, Vicent Ferrer, reached to the humble village of Hellin, in the South East of Castilla. His inquistorial preaching caused fear to the inhabitants. Something had been aroused in them, but they even known it... Now 'La tamborada de Hellin' is one of the most important and multitudinous traditions in Castilla La Mancha. Its origin and evolution lead us to the feeling, the passion and the love for the instrument'—Anonymous
