Was googling for this drum and found your video, looks good. Didn’t know it comes in such a tiny size!

Hi everyone! Here's how to play Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence on this steel drum or any instrument tuned to the major scale, using the number system.
Just play these numbers. (1* means the higher number 1 note)
5 6 5 2 5--- 5 6 5 6 1* 6 5 6 5 2 4-- 4 3 1* 6-
5 6 5 2 5-- 5 6 5 6 1* 6 5 6 5 4 2---

I received mine about a month ago and notice that one of the tongues is not the correct note. When I try to play Happy Birthday it does not sound correct. I free beat it and enjoy the sound. Quite unique. I bought it to play for my father who is not well. He likes to hear the vibration patterns.

The compact version also feels great in the hand, and the sound is crisp and pleasant

Hello - that was so good to see because I just bought the EXACT same instrument (also same color :-) but mine does not sound as nice tuned as yours is. So I wonder: did you tune it yrself or did it arrive like this? Since I found out its not so easy to tune precise (even for a professional pianist - ps: would appreciate yr comment on my channel as well, thank you!)

My drum didn’t come with any numbers. Any suggestion as to how I should apply the number stickers after I purchase them? I don’t know what’s what on the drum I received.

The melody you play at the start reminds me of a part in the song forbidden colours by David sylvian

Hi bro, can you show how you play this? I bought a pygmy c minor kosmosky 12" tongue drum.. I am totally new to music so I am not sure how to form repeated beats and flowing music.. I just randomly. Are there any systematic way to learn it?

Interesting, I was just looking up videos online for these things bc my mom (who is very bad at online shopping) just paid 60 USD for these little guys off of some facebook merchant 🤦♀️The instrument just came in a little pouch with the sticks and thats it- no instructions or anything. Trying to find something useful online lol

Mine is not tuned at all 😳. Is there a video on how to fix this?

I would like to know what is the key of your drum? I bought one with middle C. The sound seemed different from yours
