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 education in Manchester
The Manchester music scene in the 1960s had successful bands including Haliz, Biggs, and Hermans Hermits. After the punk rock era, Manchester introduced the world to popular bands including Joey Division, New Oder, Smiths, and Simply Red. In 2018, Manchester was named the Rock and Independence Capital of the United Kingdom, largely due to the large number of concerts hosted by the city's small and medium-sized venues. Research has shown that the Manchester Academy has hosted the most rock and roll events in Manchester since the start of its record in 2015. Manchester's largest popular music hall is the Manchester Arena, which has more than 20,000 seats. Oasis, Smith, Stone Day, Avery Ting, Avery Ting, Hermann Hermit, New Older, and Ian Brown are some of Manchester's most famous musicians.
