The talking drum is a West African drum whose pitch can be regulated to the extent that it is said the drum "talks". The player puts the drum under one shoulder and beats the instrument with a stick. A talking drum player raises or lowers the pitch by squeezing or releasing the drum's strings with the upper arm. This can produce highly informative sounds to convey complicated messages. The ability to change the drum's pitch is analogous to the language tonality of some African languages.

Because when slaves and servants, shepherds and ordinary townspeople played the drum to send messages, everyone in the village heard it. When the sender of the message got a reply, it sounded like the hourglass drum was talking to them.
well it depends on what kind of drum you are talking about. if you are talking about a snare, the bottom head shuts off all the ringing sound and adds a surface for the springs to "buzz" up against. without it it will sound like a tom.
You put the word kalangu infront of talking drum, Tadah
