LENA Drum "ÓM" D | purple

LENA Drum "OM" is a melodic steel tongue drum with eleven notes in D major tuning. Thanks to its wider range, it offers more possibilities for simple melodies, songs, gentle rhythms, and free improvisation.

It features an engraved Om symbol on the top side and comes in a purple finish. It is played primarily with soft mallets, which resonate the notes well and highlight their sustain. You can play with one or two mallets depending on whether you want individual notes, smoother melodies, or more rhythmic playing. You can also play gently with your fingers; the sound is then quieter and softer.

The notes naturally harmonize with each other, so you can play the drum even without sheet music and previous musical experience. It is suitable for children and adults, home playing, meditation, music education, relaxation, and as a beautiful gift.
