Tumba, tumba, tumba tum.

[edit]

There are three percussive tumbas listed here:

  • Tumba (drum) - a rare kind of thin drum
  • Tumba is also the Panamanian colloquial name for a folkloric drum about 3 feet high, a foot across, mounted on a stand. It is struck with the hands.
  • The tumba is the largest drum of the conga family.

They all sound like one and the same thing. The article on Tumba (drum) is very short. Does anyone know whether these are distinct instruments or not? ---Sluzzelin talk 19:36, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
