Principles of Calabash - Shekere TrioThe beaded, open gourd is fun and challenging to play, integrating both subtle and vigorous body movements. This trio version of the original 9-player Principles of Calabash is shorter and more dense, utilizing 3 large shekeres, 3 axaste gourd shekeres, dun-dun with pedal, gankogui (African double bell), gajate (pedal) with jam block.
There is a series of exercises and studies (13 pages) available in the Shekere Basics - General Studies file (bottom of page). Video: Principles of Calabash
