Introduction :

Rainstick – “Palo de Lluvia” means a stick that can make rain falling sound. The rainstick is believed to have been invented in Chile or Peru, and was played in the belief that it could bring about rainstorms. Rainsticks are usually made from any of several species of cactus. The cacti, which are hollow, are dried in the sun. The spines are removed, and then driven into the cactus like nails. Pebbles or other small objects are placed inside the rainstick and the ends are sealed.
