Remo African Collection E1-6818-AH Arthur Hull Nesting Drums

By Remo. Set of 6 Arthur Hull Signature Series nesting drums, each with a mallet and carrying strap. Perfect for music therapists, teachers, facilitators of large drumming groups, or anyone who needs maximum flexibility and mobility from their instruments! The 6 drums are sized so that they "nest" within each other for ease of transportation. Each double-headed drum has pretuned Fiberskyn 3 heads, which can be detached and played as individual frame drums (the heads also detach so that the drums can be "nested"). The heads from each drum are at two different pitches, with one having a lower "calf-like" sound and the other having a higher pitched "goat-like" timbre. This unique feature gives the drums great versatility- you can use any one of these configurations to create different sounds: drum with both heads on; drum with one or the other of its heads on; or each head played separately. These drums could be used to create the bass voice of a djembe ensemble, to maintain the basic rhythmic pulse of the ensemble so the other instruments can create the groups more complex syncopated and polyrhythmic layers. Drums are in assorted colors.   

Includes one each of the following sizes of drums:
18" x 18" (brown)
17" x 16" (yellow)
15" x 14" (green)
