Cajón

Sound of the World

The Cajón is a unique percussion instrument from Peru, often made of wood in a rectangular box shape. Played by sitting on it and striking the front panel with hands, it produces deep, resonant sounds. Originating from African slaves in Peru, it is widely used in Afro-Peruvian and flamenco music, adding rhythmic depth and cultural richness to performances.
