More about this product Steel tongue drums create individual pitches through shaped sections cut into their upper surface. Each tongue vibrates when struck, allowing the eight notes to combine into gentle melodies, steady pulses and layered rhythmic sequences. The wooden mallets provide clear, controlled strikes, while the sturdy carry bag helps protect the drum during storage and transport. Variations within the marble pattern and gold-toned detailing give each instrument its own individual appearance.
