The Cajon (Cajón) is a percussion instrument of Peruvian origin which for some time has become very popular in Europe and has attracted many artists, not just percussionists.

Small (50cm high), light and practical, its grip is very fast. One sits on it and one uses his hands to play by striking on its frontal wall.
The Cajon is sonorous and different sounds, serious or acute, with or without stamp, are obtained according to where it is struck and according to the position of the hands and the fingers.

Thanks to its different sound combinations, it is used in many musical styles, either as a percussion instrument but also as a “replacement” of the drums for practical or musical reasons.

Finally the Cajon is a great tool to discover the rhythm and improve.
