Today’s image № 6 is actually not just an image but a video, because only seeing this instrument, the so-called spring drum, probably wouldn’t give you a good enough idea of how it sounds.

As you can see, it’s a rather simple tube with the top end being cut diagonally and covered with a piece of drum head. A long spring coil is attached in the centre of the drum head that, when shaken or hit or even just lightly touched, gives off a resonating, sustaining sound that resembles thunder.

The tube measures roughly 26 centimetres at the longest end and has a diameter of about 9 centimetres; its bottom is open, which allows for various wah-wah-like modulations.

So, click play and enjoy.
