African drum

African drum, commonly known as Djembe, usually refers to the west African djembe, which is a representative musical instrument of manding culture in west Africa. Traditionally, Djembe is performed with bare hands, mainly in low, medium and high tones, and needs to be coordinated with Dunun (Dunun drum) to play drums related to specific life scenes to accompany dancers and singers. Now Djembe has spread to all parts of the world, playing its unique value in different fields of music and training.
The tambourine controls the rhythm, which is always present in people's lives. The Mandine people living in west Africa are optimistic by nature. They sing constantly in their work and life, expressing happiness with their musical emotion of that day. In Africa's pristine and beautiful nature, no matter in the daytime, evening, sunset or starry night, they sing to thank everything that is poor but happy. In all things related to labor, they are singing enthusiastically, while men and women are in love with each other and when entertaining guests, they should sing beautifully. A long time ago, when they/they sang happily, they beat the beat with their hands, or hit everything around them that they could hit, playing cheerful rhythms and jumping out of happy dances. In this way, the African tambourine Djembe was born. Since then, the African tambourine has never been separated from the Mandine culture, religion, singing and dancing. In people's life and labor, African tambourines have added strength and added endless fun.
The African tambourine not only plays rhythm in daily life, but also conveys information. They give a fixed signal to the rhythm and convey the specific things they want to express. So they don't have to go out of the house at all, they already know what happened in the village, because the drums of the African tambourine have spread the situation to everyone's mind.
The African tambourine is a drum of religious divinity, which is found in many religious activities. It can also be used in battle drums and other social activities.
In Africa, the African tambourine is not only a musical instrument, it also inherits the traditions, thoughts, arts, history and everything that can be inherited.
