Yesterday I got some shakers and thought how easy this was going to be, brought them home, and then quickly realized there is a lot more to it 😅 That’s why I’m here
Many years ago (50's through the 70's) our shaker was an empty and cleaned out Drano can with bb's in it. The newer shakers are much more quiet but I still love to play them. Thanks for this video to help
Your opening comments should be a required lesson for ALL musicians. Accessibility doesn't equal proficiency. Just because it is easy to make a 'noise' (as opposed to wind and string instruments) does not mean you are making music. Thank you for putting this out there. TNB
Natural Acoustics Lab manufactures the most articulate shakers on the planet. One small shaker can support numerous playing techniques while creating multiple rhythmic patterns and shakers articulations. Thanks for your video!
Right? He's so awesome. I remember watching some of his videos years ago. Now I'm interested in actually doing some percussion - and there is again. Wonderful.
I love your relaxed demeanor in this video's and weirdly, if I copy your calmness, I get better at the exercises!! I'm loving my percussion journey and you are helping me greatly via these videos. Thank you! (From a guitarist by trade who wanted a new challenge!)
When I first started playing percussion, I always thought the shakers were the easy instruments. I now realize that was quite incorrect. I feel more confident on marimba or timpani than I do with a simple shaker. Great video though, definitely helped me a lot with understanding "the groove" !
This should be publicly broadcasted. I can remember countless time when public jams were destroyed by the organizers handed out to non-musicians to "invite people in", who then proceeded to create an acoustic soup that destroyed any semblance of rhythm that evening. Yes, everyone thinks they can play shakers, but they don't realize the sound comes delayed to the hand move, they are often late on the beat.
I love this video because it helped me get over my intimidation with shakers. Thanks. I'd like more instruction and resources to learn more shaker grooves.
I LOVE shakers !!!! I have tons and LOVE micro timing.. didn’t have a word for it till today.. nothing is perfect and a rattle can help explain that for me, in subtle changes in the rhythms.. they have more effect in a drum circle than most would expect.
Percussions are a very intuitive category of instruments. I "feel" them and communicate my intents. The shaker is a "easy" one as you can play it with one hand. The two handed instruments - congo djembe bongos etc - are way more difficult to master but the amount of expression you can put in them is amazing. I like the way you explain those emotions and translate them into rhytm, as well as the knowledge you have. Awesome channel !
You are an awesome teacher! To and fro only ever exist in combo. So "fro" is simply the opposite of "to" (you must choose "to" yourself or to someone else) and then fro is the opposite direction, but "fro" cannot exist on its own.
When you were talking about poeples experience with percussion, I think that another thing that happens is that they think "oh, this instrument has all these cool sounds I hear when I hear other people play them," and when they play, they do the most basic movements, and they don't hear what they would hear on album or during a performance. They get a repititouis sound that isn't dynamic, and they get frustrated and give up. I've come to love the wolrd of ethnic perucssion, egyptian percussion in particular, and I love tambourines. I have a whole whole of them hung up, of different kings, along with different kinds of fram drums :)
It's like the tag on a gift! To and from. "To" is usually the receiver of that gift, which tends to be someone other than the giver. And "from" (or 'fro') is the giver, the self. So from my perspective, "to" is outwards and "fro" is inwards
Thank you for the tutorial! I just got a bamboo shaker today and yes, i'm one of those who first picked it up and shake it. I am a guitar player and currently working on an ambient project which, except of 1 song, i want to use any kind of percussion other than drums. My next step, crafting some home made rattle.
How'd your rattle crafting go? I am thinking the Mongolian Giant sunflower stalk here could be made into one. It's thicc and easy to hollow out. Made a shakuhachi flute out of the first one. Have more to go.
Thank you, it was so useful for me as a singer: I was putting unnecessary strength in some movements, now I'm doing much better. By the way, Italian word "citofono" works as well! And you're so right about practicing everywhere, but I just imagined my husband, who's not a musician, anxiously waiting outside the bathroom and hearing five minutes of shaker sounds... lol! 🤗😉😘
I love the outro speech. As someone thats career is based on melodic material I am so amazed by this channel and the idea of making music without melody as a challenge! Thanks so much for sharing! :D Also... I know your BG music from the Tropico Soundtrack... great tune! ;)
I added the syncopatic technique from your instruction on the tamburine by changing the hitting side of the second. One can generate polyrhythms just by mechanically (brainless) combing little algorithms to varying pattern-structures, letting them train your rhythm feeling and expand it to complexity.
I ordered a wooden single maracas this morning and landed on this as I was looking for a good video on shakers. This maracas is beaded on the outside. I'm assuming it can be played the same way u demonstrate here. I'm good with beats and rhythm so I'm planning to use it as an accompaniment during my singing. I can't play any stringed instrument but I find percussion easy and enjoyable. I used to sing to guitars and tried teaching myself the guitar when I had nobody to play it for me but it's just too hard. I really want to sing to an instrument again.
Great lesson Kalani! Thanks for taking the time to emphasize the complexity involved in playing the shakers, I've been looking for how to explain this to my friends and family XD Aloha
Kalani, I meet you about 15 years ago at a Guitar Center workshop in Miami. (You had more hair back then! 😳😁) I still have one of your cd's. You are as cool as ever, bro. Thanks for your videos. You are a great teacher.
I find this incredibly hard! I love the idea of showing my students and I certainly appreciate when someone is eliciting an impressive rhythm with a shaker but something about the coordination aspect really challenges me (and therefore I guess will challenge my students). I finally found some success by slowing the metronome down to 80 bpm. I'll try a little bit a day to see if I can build my skills and speed.
My clarinet teacher taught to use words like cacophony to subdivide the beat, like Mississippi for sixteenths. For your subs, might I suggest finding a word that fits the particular groove you’re trying to convey. Chesapeake Bay, cats in the cradle.....whatever fits to the groove. And however that word emphasis fits.
Thank you for discussing micro timing. -Thousands of little adjustments during the musical piece to add the "human element" to the groove. I never knew quite how to express that. It has always been just the "feel" of the music to me.
Another excellent video, Kalani! (And perfectly timed for me... I just bought some shakers). I especially liked the rhythmic variations and fill you threw into the first sample. Gracias! 🙏💕
'I have made a series of shakers from Cuban cigar tubes loaded with various amounts of lead shot and they sound great. You can use them singly or two together for more volume. Obviously the two parts of the tube need to be glued together or you may end up with a floor covered with buckshot.
To and fro - fro is an archaic word from Middle English, and it means "away." So, since a shaker is played by one person, with no other nearby people or objects necessary (let's ignore air and gravity, here) it seems to be to and away from oneself. Unless there is another person there and you are taunting them with it, and then it could be the opposite. By you wouldn't do that, I am certain. :)
i did cacophony on my omega-3 capsule bottles ... just to get into the picture with Kalani ... 1st few second, i was way out of sync ... then the magic begins ... though mine sounded muffled ...but i get into the rhythm ... ok .. im going to get one Meinl Shaker now !
I have 4 shakers, egg. two louisiana shakers, that show where thumb goes and in what direction, make of copper. I cannot find them, small package in bottow of a bag or box searching for.
Great tutorial. It if definitely not easy to pick up percussion instruments. How you instruct, your ideas for practicing are ideal and also MAKE you want to do it. And I'm a guitar player..lol
You are so right. Someone grabs a shaker, starts shaking it like its a toy. With no musicality at all. When you point that out to them, and try to show them a proper method, even a very simple one, they get all mad at you because you are wrecking their "fun". Shakers are played to enhance time and rhythm. If you cannot keep time, leave the shaker alone. It is not a babys rattle.
Many years ago, like 1986 I struggled getting the rythm down at a seminar our school attended in PA.....I actually umderstand it now!! awesone instruction!
Great video. Very helpful instructions and enjoyable presentation. After one viewing and playing shaker with you as I watched I have already made substantial improvement.
I like shaker a lot. Can do a lot in band. Embellish. Very nuanced thing. Gotta listen to what the other instruments (musicians) are doing to embellish them or play off their stuff That cacophony thing is cool!
Have you every used the LP one shot shaker? They’re really cool because they allow you to control the sound since the beads don’t bounce backs due to a foam placed inside it. Since you do world drum videos and melodic instruments count, do a video on the steel pan and how to play the sleigh bells.
I also learn by watching as well as by listening,(and counting along) and there is latency in most You Tube videos. The sound doesn’t line up with the movements in the video. When he is playing with the metronome close your eyes and listen. It’s the second syllable in cacophony that is the downbeat. Watch other music videos and you will see/hear this latency, it can mess you up.

Ik wonder if a shaker is the right instrument to introduce the concept of microtiming. But still - a great video from a great teamchef, and An admirable person as well so it seems...

Fro is a short version of 'from'. Get it? Easy😁
Really appreciate the lesson! If you want to jump right to where he starts "shaking", start at 2:30
Thank you so much! I get tired of hearing people talk through these videos instead of getting ti thr point.

Shaker playing is like playing with brushes on a snare drum: to get the right sound is much harder than it looks.

Have you every used the LP one shot shaker? They’re really cool because they allow you to control the sound since the beads don’t bounce backs due to a foam placed inside it.
Since you do world drum videos and melodic instruments count, do a video on the steel pan and how to play the sleigh bells.
