Caxixis (kuh-she-shes) are Afro-Brazilian percussion instruments. Our caxixis are made in Brazil and are hand woven. Small caxixis are commonly played with Berimbaus. And the caxixis that we sell can be played alone or in pairs. A player will often play with two different sizes, one in each hand. Various movements and percussive effects are created with the caxixi (kuh-she-she). A caxixi is like a glorified shaker. It has the soothing timbre of a shaker, but produces many more effects. Players must have endurance in their shoulders, wrists, fingers and grip to play the caxixi well.
