The Toca Sympatico Short Gathering Drum gives you a versatile percussion instrument with a pre-tuned synthetic leather head. Designed for all musicians, young and old, this lightweight yet durable drum produces a wide range of tones. The removable head allows you to play it like a hand drum or attach it for a focused, resonant sound.

Pre-Tuned Head Lets You Play Immediately

With the Sympatico Short Gathering Drum, you don't have to spend time tuning the drum—the synthetic 8" leather head comes pre-tuned so you can start playing as soon as you unpack it. The securely tensioned head produces a clear, resonant tone that works for a variety of musical styles. You can also remove the head from the shell and use it on its own, giving you two distinct sounds in one drum.

Built to Withstand Rigorous Playing

Despite its compact size, the Short Gathering Drum is built to handle energetic playing. Its PVC shell and synthetic leather head are highly durable yet still produce warm, rich tones. The drum weighs less than 5 pounds, making it easy to hold and play for long periods without fatigue. Its integrated handle also provides a comfortable, slip-free grip. Cleaning and maintenance are simple thanks to synthetic materials resistant to temperature and humidity changes.
