LP® Talking Drums

talking drum

The talking drum is a two-headed drum, which can played with the talking drum stick or hands.  The special quality of a talking drum is its ability to change pitch.  This ability allows it "talk" in ways distinct from virtually all other drums and percussion.  In order to make it "talk" a player simply squeezes or releases the strings before, after or while striking the head.  (Squeezing the strings makes the pitch higher; releasing makes the pitch lower.)

The LP talking drums are one of our favorite drums of all! We own, play and love LP talking drums because LP has perfected the design and sound of these drums, which originated from Africa.  Like all LP drums,  these are true Art-Drums.  LP's talking drums are among the most fun and most expressive hand drums.  They are beautiful crafted and expertly made.  The rope is strong and perfect for squeezing and controlling the pitch of the drum.  The expressive and rhythmic possibilities are virtually endless!
