Drum - Batas

 

LP's Bata Drum History

Founder and Chairman, Martin Cohen, first came across bata drums more than thirty years ago at a religious ceremony in the Bronx, New York. Traditionally batas are ceremonial drums that are played in groups.  At least three people sit, each with a different size drum, and act out "call and response" patterns on the drums.

They were traditionally rope tuned, but today, through the use of state-of-the-art machinery, LP Bata Drums are wrench tuned.  They are made from LP's specially selected, kiln dried, environmentally friendly Siam Oak and are the most precisely made batas available today.
