Listen Up! "D" is for Drums
A drum is as simple and basic as a drum skin stretched over a shell, and struck with either the hands or a stick to produce sound. Drums are the world's oldest musical instruments, with the basic design unchanged for thousands of years. Drums date back to ancient Egypt, Neolithic cultures in China, and in the Bronze Age Dong Son culture of northern Vietnam.Notable drummers include Tito Puente, Gene Krupa, John Bonham, Ringo Starr.
