This wonderful slit gong drums come from the island of Vanuatu in the South Pacific. Slit-gongs are found throughout the entire Oceanic region and are made from hollowed-out tree trunks and played using a long piece of wood two to four feet long, similar to a baseball bat. They produce a variety of deep, resonating sounds. Drums from Vanuatu are played upright, in other places they're played horizontally. The drums are vessels to receive messages from ancestors and sacred spirits, but they serve a practical purpose, too. They are used to communicate important events or to send messages to the community.
