Snare drum

Snare drum is a bad ass instrument. Its loud, its fast and its intense. It high pitched because it is tuned extremely tight and because of this it is a very loud instrument. The tight nature of the head gives the stick a lot of rebound off of the drum which makes it easier to play very fast things on it. Even though its a single drum, apposed to all of the other drums I talked about that have multi-surfaces to play on, its still just as difficult to play due to the amount of notes that are usually written for this drum. Heres an example of how even though its only a single drum, a lot of different things can be done with it.
