Percussion Plus unveils World Slap Djembes

Percussion Plus is proud to introduce the next generation of Slap Djembes, now crafted by the world’s leading djembe manufacturers in Bali.

The new World Slap Djembes continue the ethos of inclusivity with their popular ‘how to play’ synthetic heads and broad selection of sizes. Key innovations include a patented one-piece construction, a precisely stretched Fiberskin head and a vibrant new ‘World’ design.

Inspired by the award winning ‘Andy Gleadhill’s Slap Djembe’ book, the new map-style sarong-wrapped shell immerses students in a multicultural learning experience. Still durable and lightweight with impressive resonance and a non-slip rubber base, the World Slap Djembe is the perfect classroom instrument.

Packs optimised for education

Available in rope tuned and pre-tuned varieties in a range of sizes, they are also supplied in a variety of convenient education packs, including new secondary packs with larger drums selections. Several of these are made up at the factory, saving on shipping space and maximising sustainability through efficiency. Every djembe set includes a copy of Andy Gleadhill’s Slap Djembe, the ideal accompanying resource for classroom teaching.

“I was so impressed by the original concept for the Slap Djembe product range. Since its launch in 2020, it has become apparent that the education community wholeheartedly agrees. At a time when Whole Class Ensemble Teaching (WCET) is gaining widespread traction within music education and often needs to be delivered by non-specialists, having instruments that share the load in terms of technical instruction is a huge asset.” Andy Gleadhill – Educator, Author and Composer | Percussion Plus Global Ambassador
