Claves are tuned, musical pieces
of wood that you play by banging them together. Claves are perfect for

on it so that it rests between the base of the thumb and the ends of your
fingers. Your hand should form a hollow chamber underneath the clave. Now,
hold the other clave by the end in your other hand. And as you hold your
cupped hand moionless, bring the clave you are holding by the end down
to strike the clave on the cupped hand. With practice you should be able
to produce sharp, clear resonant tones with a variety of pitches and timbres.Our
