The Sabar


The sabar is traditional drum from the West African nation of Senegal. 
It is generally played with one hand and one stick. 
Among its most renowned exponents is the Senegalese musician Doudou N’Diaye Rose (b. 1928). 

The sabar was used to communicate to other villages. 
The different rhythms correspond to phrases and could be heard for over 15 kilometers
