What is A quinto drum a conga drum snare drum?

A quinto drum is a type of conga drum, specifically the highest-pitched member of the conga family, typically used in Afro-Cuban music. It is often played alongside larger conga drums, such as the conga and tumba, to create a rich, layered rhythmic texture. In contrast, a snare drum is a different percussion instrument commonly found in drum kits, characterized by its sharp, crisp sound produced by metal wires (snares) stretched across the bottom head. While both types of drums contribute to rhythm, they serve distinct roles in various musical genres.
