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 Regina

Since its inception, Regina has had some of the best music clubs, music, and literary societies, and church choirs in Canada. Frank L. Laubach, a professional musician who came to the city from Scotland in 1904, was the undisputed leader in music until his retirement in 1922. He founded the Regina Philharmonic Society in 1904 and the Regina Orchestra Society. From those years until now, Regina has steadily progressed in the music industry to the present day, which is one of the best cities in Canada in this field. Regina's most famous musicians include Stu Davis, Jack Sample, Greg Williamson, Andy Schaff, Kick X, and more. Exchange and Kaneos Art Center are some of the most famous music halls in the city, and the Regina Folk Festival can be considered the biggest music festival there.
