The drum is one of the most important instruments in African music. The drum was first invented by the people of Africa and has been used for thousands of years. It is a very versatile instrument that can be played in many different ways. The djembe is the most popular drum in Africa. It is made out of wood and is usually a little larger than a snare drum. Djembes are often decorated with carvings and painted designs. They are also often covered with cow skin or animal hide.
Djembe drums were used as early as the 14th century by the kings of Benin. The djembe was originally made from wood, but nowadays they are usually made from metal. They are made to be played with sticks and hands. There are two types of djembe. One is called the "small" djembe and the other is called the "large" djembe. The small djembe is the most common type of djembe. The large djembe is a more complicated type of djembe and is not as commonly used.
The djembe is the only African instrument that is played by hand. Most of the other instruments in Africa are played with a bow. The djembe is played with sticks. Djembe drummers usually play with three sticks. The sticks are called the "bastard stick", "stick of the right hand" and the "stick of the left hand". The bastard stick is the largest of the three sticks and is used to beat the drum. The stick of the right hand is used to hit the bass drum and the stick of the left hand is used to hit the snare drum.
The djembes are used to make different kinds of music. The most common kind of music made with djembes is called "funi". Funi is a type of music that is usually played at weddings and other ceremonies. Funi is a form of music that is played by the djembe and the ngoni (a type of lute). The djembe is also used in funeral songs.
The djembs are used to create rhythms. These rhythms are then used to create melodies. The djembe is used in all types of music. It is used in all types of dances. Djembe music is used in all types of ceremonies. The djembe is also the main instrument in the music of the Yoruba people. The Yoruba people have a very specific rhythm that they use in their music. This rhythm is called "Ekun". The Yoruba people believe that Ekun is the rhythm of creation.
Djembes are very popular in Africa. Djembe music is very popular in Africa and around the world. Djembe music is also very popular in the United States and Europe. In America, djembe music is often played in restaurants and bars. Many people go to restaurants and bars to hear djembe music.
