What is a Drum?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A drum is a musical instrument consisting of a cylindrical tube that is open at one end, with a head (skin\/hide) that is forcefully hit with the hands, sticks, or other implements.<\/p>\n

Other household items can also be used to create a similar sound. A drum can be used to create various sounds and rhythms, either alone or in conjunction with other instruments.<\/p>\n

Some of the most common types of drums include the snare drum, bass drum, tom drums, timbales, and bongos. The drum consists of a resonating shell with either a single cylinder or multiple cylinders of wood, metal, or plastic.<\/p>\n

Drums are traditionally made with a wooden shell; however, synthetic materials like metal and plastic are common. In the shell, there are many air pockets that, when hit, cause the drum to vibrate and produce sound.<\/p>\n
