Cajons Information


The Cajon is the Spanish/Latin American percussion box (the word cajon means box). It has become very popular this century partly because the tone of the box is clean and does not ring on and so works very well to accompany stringed instruments, for instance a flamenco guitar. The player sits on the cajon and plays the front plate with the tips of the fingers and the palm of the hand.
