Description


Pumpkin Maracas:
It doesn't always have to be wood. Following the Peruvian tradition, hollowed-out pumpkins serve as the resonators. Each pair of maracas produces two different, very clear tones. The traditional hand-painting gives the maracas a harmonious design. Each is approximately 18 cm long.

Maracas, or rumba rattles as they are also called, belong to the group of percussion instruments and consist of a hollow body filled with plant seeds, grit,

or pebbles and a handle. Originally, this hollow body was made of dried pumpkins; today, wood, leather, or plastics are used. Maracas are played in pairs, being shaken rhythmically to create the typical rattling sound. For rattles with different timbres,
the lower-pitched one is played with the right hand, the higher-pitched one with the left. Maracas are used especially in Latin American music styles (e.g., samba, rumba, or bossa nova), but are also suitable as toy instruments and for music lessons.

Egg shakers or chicken shakers have similar properties to maracas,

but do not have a handle.
