About this video
-Clave is both a rhythmic pattern found in latin music and a percussion instrument. The instrument is Spanish in origin, claves are two thick pieces of dowel traditionally made of Rosewood or Ebony. The non-dominant hand creates a resonating chamber by holding one clave between the fingertips and thumb. The other clave is held in the dominant hand like a drumstick. When struck together, the sound is bright & clear. Visit https://shawpercussion.com/products for more information on Shaw Percussion African djembes and world percussion instruments.
