Structural features of Cajon

The Cajon or box instrument is a percussion instrument from Peru that dates back to the 1800s. One of the first notable points about the structure of this instrument is that you have to sit on it to play! And its beautiful sound is created by tapping on the front panel (or tapa plate) and the side plates of the instrument. This instrument is actually a rectangular box made of wood. While the side and back and front plates of the box can be 0.5 to 0.75 inches thick, the top board on which the musician sits is made of plywood. There is a hole in the back of the instrument (or sometimes in the left and right walls of the instrument) where the sound exits. In some types of Cajon, the instrument is tuned by loosening and tightening the tension of the strings. This instrument is used in flamenco and jazz style. Some of the most important Cajon players in the world are Mario Cortes, Mike Meadows, Nina Rodriguez, and Stephen Moss.

Music in the city of Düsseldorf

Düsseldorf is the city of music, the strangest dances, and the great punk musicians in the world. If there was an index of international musicians per capita, Düsseldorf would probably be the first city in Germany: Kraftwerk, Neo, Leu Düsseldorf, and Creedler St. are among the most important world-famous bands to emerge from this city. The history of electronic music in this city can be traced back to about half a century. Punk music is also gaining traction in Düsseldorf, with Toten Hosen and Broilers being well-known artists in this area.
