Talking Drum is a West African, hourglass-shaped drum. Besides Talking Drum, Kalungu and Adondo, depending on different regions, there are many names for Talking Drum. Talking Drum is struck with a curved beater with a hemispherical tip. The pitch can be modified by adjusting the tension of the membrane by tightening or loosening the tensioning ropes, and thus the intonation of the human voice can be imitated.
