How to Play Djembe and Care of Djembe

To play the Djembe sit on the edge of a chair. Cross your ankles and tuck them slightly under you. Hold the Djembe between your knees or thighs so that the bottom of the drum rests behind your heels. Djembe players will find a wide range of sounds can be produced from this instrument.

The best treatment for a skin head is use. The more a drum is played the better for the head. The natural oils from your skin will help to keep the head in condition. If you find the sound going a little dull you can re-tune the head using the cords.

    Surpassed hope and expectations!

    Posted by Todd on 28th Dec 2014

    While shipping to Alaska can be a bear (pun intended!) X8 DID get our djembe to us in time for Christmas and my daughter was ecstatic! As it was her only gift request, there was a lot riding on something ordered, completely unseen, online. It arrived in good condition and sounding wonderful. When my daughter showed it off to our choir director, a PhD in percussion studies, she confirmed the quality of craftsmanship. Thank you for making Christmas special!

    Oh, So Satisfied

    Posted by Unknown on 13th Sep 2014

    I received this drum by default when the drum I ordered was found to be damaged before it was shipped to me, thankfully. I love this drum! It is the perfect size, has an amazing sound to it and is beautiful to boot!! Thanx, Art for turning what could have become 'a situation' into a happy customer experience!!!

    Wonderful Djembe Drum

    Posted by Patricia Hoke on 12th Aug 2014

    This is a wonderful drum.The voice is that of a much larger drum with the ease of a smaller size.It will join the collection for my drumming circle... love the tone and size..just right for the smaller/shorter drummers in the Drummin Sistahs.
