Conical drums
notation: 211.25
narrower: Double-skin conical drums
narrower: Single-skin conical drums
definition: Drums with tubular bodies in which the diameter at the ends differs considerably; some minor departures from strict conicity, inevitably met, are disregarded here. Tightly stretched membranes enclose one or both ends, and are directly struck by the player using the hands or intermediate devices such as sticks.
