HISTORY

The Peruvian Cajon created by black slaves in Peru during the Spanish colonization because of the prohibition of playing their drums by the Catholic Religion since they were considered as heathen instruments.
The Peruvian Viceroyalty also banned them to avoid the communication between black people (talking drums)
Every drum found was burnt. Percussion was the divine factor of African music so the slaves tried to find an instruments to express themselves. The black slaves saw a percussion instrument in the boxes used to carry goods and they played them in their sacred ceremonies  and different artistic demonstrations.

 

 

Methodology:

I PROVIDE PC MUSIC SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS 64 BITS FOR RHYTHM READING WITH REAL CAJON SOUNDS, WHICH MAKES LEARNING EASIER.
YOU CAN LEARN THE RHYTHMS BY LISTENING TO THEM AS THEY SOUND, YOU CAN LEARN TO READ THEM BY MUSIC AND PLAY THEM AND YOU CAN PLAY THE RHYTHMS AT THE SAME TIME AS THE SOFTWARE AND ALSO CHANGE THE SPEED OF PLAYING.
