Can you explain how drum notes are produced and how they contribute to the overall sound of a drum performance?

Drum notes are produced when a drummer strikes the drumhead with a drumstick or mallet. The vibration of the drumhead creates sound waves that travel through the air, producing the distinctive tone of the drum. The pitch and tone of the drum notes can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the drumhead. In a drum performance, the combination of different drum notes creates rhythms and patterns that contribute to the overall sound and feel of the music.
