More about this product Steel tongue drums create individual pitches through shaped sections cut into their upper surface. Each tongue vibrates when lightly struck, allowing the eight notes to combine into melodic phrases, repeating pulses and flowing rhythmic patterns. The wooden mallets provide clear, controlled strikes, while the sturdy carry bag helps protect the drum during storage and transport. Small variations in the red colouring and metal finish form part of each instrument’s individual appearance.
