These are very
common single-skin drums with a wooden body and fabric or plant fibre
braces. Often, as in the case of the large drums of Chad,
they are very tall and are played in a standing position. Normally the
drummer has at his disposal several drums of varying sizes, as in the
case of the three drums from Senegal which he uses individually or at
the same time at different times according to the dances.
