The Zenko is a stainless-steel tongue drum (also called a “tank” drum or “hank”) designed and created by Metal Sounds in France. The drum can be played by both beginners and experienced musicians alike. The Ionian is an A minor diatonic scale. An A3 in the center makes for a deep bass that can be used as a pivot. The Ionian is a wonderful accompaniment to other instruments.
