The “sabar” drum is one of three main drum types used widely in Senegal. Less known outside the region than the wider shorter hand drum, the sabar is worn around the waist of the drummer and played with one hand and a stick. It is long and narrow and therefore produces more of a bass sound. Special choreography is designed exclusively for dancing to the sabar.
