Quijada (Donkey Jawbone Shaker) 驢顎骨製的搖響樂器

 

Code : TT 63

Introduction :

Quijada is a percussion instrument consisting of the lower jawbone of a donkey, horse or zebra. The jawbone is dried out and the teeth loosened. When struck with the hand, the teeth rattle, producing a powerful buzzing sound. The playing technique involves holding the quijada with one hand and striking or tapping the large end of the jaw with the palm, or a beater is used to strike the teeth or bone, and pulled along the teeth which act as a rasp. The sound of the shaky teeth increases by the resonance of the jaw. These ingredients provide the basis for a wide variety of combinations and rhythms.

In Spanish the jawbone is called quijada. It is one of the main traditional instruments used by Afro-Peruvian musical ensembles and is used in many other Latin American cultures.

簡介：

顎骨製的搖響樂器是一種由驢、馬或斑馬下顎骨製成的敲擊樂器。顎骨經曬乾，而牙齒是鬆動的。用手敲擊時，顎骨振動，牙齒嘎嘎，發出強大的嗡嗡聲。演奏方法包括：一隻手拿起樂器，另一隻手的手掌，敲擊或拍打樂器，或用棒子敲打牙齒或顎骨，或拉動牙齒來發出聲音。牙齒搖動，會透過顎骨共振，這種共鳴會增加聲音的音量。這些方法提供了多種組合和節奏的基礎。
在西班牙語中，顎骨被稱為 quijada。顎骨製的搖響樂器是非裔秘魯人音樂合奏中主要使用的傳統樂器，而它亦被用於其他拉丁美洲文化中。
