Due to some analogies with the bossa nova it occasionally called cola-samba or “sambed” ""coladeira. It is a variant of the ""coladeira"" with a slower tempo (""andante""), simpler structure than the ""morna"", the rhythmic accentuation of the melody is on the first beat and the last half-beat of the bar.

However, unlike the gandingan or the agong, the babendil has a sunken boss which makes the boss relatively non-functional.

Each string has a fundamental tone with its own spectrum of overtones, which makes a rich and vibrant sound, due to interactive harmonic resonance that will support the external tones played by the soloist. The name tamboori is derived from tama or tana, referring to a musical phrase, and borri, or bori which means ""vibrant"". The"
