The djembe is a popular form of drum, rivaled primarily by the conga and steel pan. The djembe has its origins in the Bamanakan phrase ‘Anke dje, anke be’, which translates to ‘everyone gather together’.

This  djembe drum is perfect for younger users. Each fair trade djembe drum has an original style and is hand carved – no two are alike. The djembe is an easy instrument for developing percussion skills. A hand-held instrument usually played with your bare hands, the djembe is often found being played in groups along with other percussion instruments. The djembe has an incredible tonal range, from thunderclap to whisper soft, setting it apart from other drums.
