Please note: For the purpose of demonstration I used the claytone # 4 Udu Drum.
The Udu Drum is generally played in a seated position with the drum on the player's lap. If you do not have this particular Udu Drum, apply the side hole instruction to the lowest tone and the neck hole instruction to the highest tone.
The tonal qualities of the Udu Drum bring out the melodic possibilities. These sounds can be compared to those of the African Talking Drums of the Indian Tabla Drums.
Use the center of the palm when practicing all tonal techniques; covering and uncovering the holes.
