- Description: The friction drum is a simple membrane drum with the lower end open. A stick is pierced through a hole in the centre of the membrane and hangs inside the body of the drum being suitably attached to the membrane by small cross pieces pierced through the stick itself. The player usually sits on the ground with the drum resting on his legs, the open end towards his body. Having moistered his hands (or sometimes a cloth) with water he sets the membrane in vibration by the friction of his hands pulling the stick downwards towards him. In this way a roaring sound is made and rhythms produced by alternating the stroke between the two hands. It is essential to keep the two hands wet, water having the same effect as resin on a violin bow. Drinking song with 1 Pwita friction drum and percussion
