Djembe has a vast sound range and is very responsive.
Although on the surface it appears to be played with just three
conventional strokes, by
slight changes in positioning, pressure and accentuation of each stroke,
slightly different sound can be created. Add touch notes(or grace notes, These
are the non existing notes which can be represented by gentle touch on the
drum, useful for keeping the timing) and you can create a colorful vibrant
tapestry of sound. |
