Toca Talking Djembe 8"

The Toca Talking Djembe 8" is the most compact and portable option in the Talking Djembe line, combining the playability of a djembe with a full talking drum tension cord system for real-time pitch control. At 8", it's a light, easy-to-handle instrument that works well as a travel drum, a classroom instrument, or a creative addition to a drum circle or world music setup. The smaller size emphasizes the upper tonal range of the djembe, producing bright, articulate open tones and crisp slaps, while still delivering a surprising amount of bass for its dimensions. Play it like a djembe seated or standing, or tuck it under your arm like a traditional talking drum and use the included curved beater.
