Topic: Surdo


  
  A Word about Surdos
It is for people who have been playing surdo or samba for years, for people just beginning, or for people who are researching Brazilian instruments and have no intention on touching a heavy, rusty steel drum.
According to my research, the surdo comes from the atabaque family of drums that have a lineage back to the Africa, and evolved into the drums used in candomblé and umbanda ceremonies, and ultimately to a variety of styles, including the tamtam, rebolo, and timbal.
Surdos derive from urban centers, and are traditionally made of leftover industrial materials, like sheetmetal, bolts, and steel rods.
