A surdo is a large bass drum used in Brazilian music, particularly in samba and other Afro-Brazilian genres. It has a deep, resonant sound and is typically played with mallets. The surdo provides the foundational rhythm in a samba ensemble, supporting the overall groove and helping to keep time for dancers and other musicians. Its size and sound make it a prominent instrument in carnival parades and festive celebrations.
