This is where it all started. In 1982 Gerhard Priel was a big fan of the Log Drum , being a cabinet maker, he built one for himself. Many friends of his liked the drum so much, he had to make some for them too. This got the ball rolling and it became - Schlagwerk. The combination of rhythm and melody still today is very attractive to many people. The log drum sound is very pleasant, no aggressive overtones at all. It’s the acoustic equivalent to being wrapped in a warm blanket. Just the pure, warm, mellow and natural sensation of feeling safe and secure. That’s one reason for its extensive use in musical therapy and health treatment. Our log drums are made with pentatonic tuning, a feature which provides the possibility of universal application in the fields of education and therapy without musical background.

One of the most outstanding features of the 10 tone drum, the original Schlagwerk Log Drum is its versatility. This instrument is tuned to an F-Pentatonic scale spanning two octaves. Virtuosity and joy in experimenting are just what is needed here.
