Low Med Hapi Drum Mandela Leaf- 14x7cm

Product Overview

A Hapi drum carries a tune, not just a beat: the tongues cut into its steel shell are each tuned to a note, so tapping around the top plays a melody. A low-medium Hapi Drum finished with a vibrant mandala leaf design, full of colour and fine detail without feeling overwhelming. Small enough to sit on a shelf or take to a class, it doubles as a quiet instrument to pick up in passing moments.

Tuned to a lower register, it produces warm, mellow tones with a gentle depth. Each note flows smoothly into the next, making it ideal for slow rhythms, simple melodies, or just playing without thinking too much about technique.

The layout is easy to follow, so you can start straight away - no experience needed. Compact but satisfying to play, it comes with mallets and a protective carry bag.

FAQ

How is a Hapi drum played? Tap the cut tongues on the top with your fingers or the supplied mallets; each tongue sounds a different tuned note, so no reading of music is needed.

Is it suitable for beginners? Yes — the notes are tuned to sound harmonious together, so it's hard to play a wrong note.
