Traditional forms of hand drums and input from leading artists have inspired our designs and specifications. We always welcome requests for customized instruments, whether variations on the types or sizes of hand drums listed here, or different instruments altogether.

Cooperman hand drums start in the Vermont woods, where trees from our native hardwood groves are carefully selected for their special bending characteristics, then milled and dimensioned using methods passed down through generations of sawyers and drum builders. We blend the traditions of solid, bent-wood drum shell construction with innovations inspired by leading world drumming artists to create our finely crafted, rich sounding hand drums.
