Before you start
Can every 8-note tongue drum play these songs?
Not always. Tongue drums with 8 notes can use different note layouts and octave ranges. This page includes a song when it matches at least one 8-note drum in the DrumSings library. Choose your exact drum on the song page to confirm the match before you practise.
Does the tuning of my tongue drum matter?
The physical tuning changes the pitch you hear, but DrumSings uses a fixed numbered display: 1 on the sheet matches tongue 1 on your drum. The available numbers and octave marks still need to match your instrument.
How do I read tongue drum sheet music?
DrumSings uses numbered notation that matches the numbered tongues on your instrument. Dots above or below a number show higher or lower octaves, while lines and dots around the notes describe rhythm and duration. Learn how to read tongue drum notation
