The drawer

The drawer is an instrument of Peruvian origin. Usually measured 47 cm high, a base of 35 cm by 20 cm and is made of wood. The origin was because spanish people invaded the Peruvians and not let them use drums, so Peruvians created this instrument. This percussion instrument is played with hands, giving blows to the front part. Usually accompanied by a guitar, dancers with heels and palms.
It is a curious instrument but with much rhythm.
