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.

Learning music in Oshawa

Oshawa has become one of Canada's most popular music destinations due to McLaughlin's Palace House. In 1870 the first band was formed in the city and was named the Oshawa Citizens Band. In the early twentieth century, music organizations from other parts of Ontario and Wales visited Oshawa, and music study groups were formed. Soon the most famous music teachers came to teach in this city and gradually took its industry forward to the current level. Mike O'Neill, Laurie Yates, Matt Werbeck, Crown Lands, Lena and Macy, the Cuff de Duke, the Sparrows are just a few of the musicians who were born and educated in this city. The city's famous Music Hall also hosts many music festivals and concerts each year.
