Introducing the Drums for Schools sangban djun djun - 18 inch

The Sangban is the middle sized drum of the classic set of three drums that make up a Dundun set, and it is suitable for Secondary, club and professional use. It is 46cm in diameter and 46cm high, and is made from recycled hardwoods to produce a shell which is even stronger than traditional single piece Sangbans. With a minimal environmental impact it is relatively light in weight and makes a magnificent sound. The head is made from traditional cow skin and each drum comes complete with a double-ended beater (wood and padded) to give an even wider range of sounds.

Djun-djun drums are often played in sets of three drums of different sizes, and there are two primary styles of playing. The traditional ‘rural’ style has each player using a single drum resting on its side, either on the floor, on a stand, or on a strap carried by the player. In each instance the drum is horizontal with both drum skins available for use for left or right handed players.

The other technique is known as ‘ballet’ style and comes from the touring National Ballet groups. One drummer may be responsible for all three Dundun parts, so the three drums are often placed upright, usually lifted from the ground with stands of some variety.
