No instrument in the world is played more intensively by hand than a percussion instrument. It is this idea that has set the rhythm for our manufacturing. We build cajons, cajintos, yambus, log drums and other percussion instruments for people with passion in their hearts and rhythm in their blood, for professional musicians all over the world and, to a certain extent, for posterity. In other words, Schlagwerk instruments keep the promise of our craft: to provide masterly manufacturing quality and excellent sound that lasts for many, many years. This is what has made us a role model for 30 years now. We are also proud of the number of friendships that we have developed with musicians and music therapists from all over the world. Hand in hand with them, we have created a range of instruments and accessories that is unique in the world of percussion. Just as unique as each one of our instruments.

🎶 Todor Akimov – a full-blooded musician with a versatile sound
Todor Akimov is a drummer and percussionist who feels at home in almost every genre. He’s especially drawn to music with a vintage character — particularly old jazz and classic rock bands — while also exploring electronic and experimental sounds. His particular strength lies in Balkan and Latin music.
Alongside his work as a drum teacher, session drummer, and percussionist, Todor is active with his own band project, BALKAN ROCK TRIO. He’s also part of VARIETY MUSIC, a diverse and well-established music collective in the wedding and events scene.
✨ Highlights & Vision
His highlights so far include an unexpected mini tour in Australia, viral videos, numerous performances at weddings and events, and the ongoing development of his own band project. His vision: more live gigs, an album with the Balkan Rock Trio, and staying open to new and unexpected musical opportunities.
In the video introducing him as a Schlagwerk endorser, Todor plays the Cajon Super Agile Silver Lining with the Heck Stick add-on — performing on a rooftop and letting the city listen in as his grooves fill the air.

Only a few days to go until Christmas 🎄
In this video, our endorser Markus Passlick performs “Fröhliche Weihnacht überall” on the TreeWorks TREHS05 triangle — distributed by Schlagwerk in Germany — accompanied by trombone.
The clear, shimmering triangle sound blends beautifully with brass, highlighting the character and warmth of this traditional Christmas song. Moments like these remind us why making music is so special — especially at this time of year.
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas filled with music and inspiration.

Music is for everyone.
The RC400 Rollin Cajon is more than a percussion instrument — it’s a statement for inclusion, accessibility, and musical expression.

Developed in collaboration with community musician Tina Gronert, the Rollin Cajon was specifically designed for wheelchair users and people with physical disabilities. Its horizontal playing position, adjustable wedges, and secure holding strap ensure comfort, stability, and confidence while playing — even with limited mobility.

Crafted in Germany from multi-layer birch, the RC400 delivers a deep, powerful bass and a clearly defined snare response, meeting the demands of both professional percussionists and therapeutic settings. It’s an ideal instrument for music therapy, geragogy, inclusive music education, and community music projects.

Experience how inclusion sounds — authentic, expressive, and empowering.

In this Reel, Rhani Krija explores a different side of our Pocket Bongos — WB14 (High) and WB16 (Low). This time, they’re played with the Cajon Big Brush BRC05, revealing a softer, more textured take on their sound.

Using a brush adds subtle dynamics and a smooth, airy character, while still preserving the clear articulation and hybrid tone that make the Pocket Bongos so unique. From gentle grooves to expressive accents, they open up an entirely new playing approach.

Whether played by hand or with brushes, Pocket Bongos are a flexible, weather-resistant, no-tuning solution — perfect as a cajon add-on or as part of a compact percussion setup.

🎧 New textures. New feel. Same Pocket Bongo spirit.

Have you heard of the Rhythm Pin Board yet?
The Rhythm Pin Board is an ideal tool for music education! Using pins in different shapes, rhythms can be represented visually and hands-on. Actively placing the pins supports multisensory stimulation in the brain. By combining seeing, feeling, and doing, learning becomes more effective—just as multisensory learning theory shows. Rhythms are not only understood, but remembered long term.
In this video, you can see how Tim Beck uses the Rhythm Pin Board in an after-school cajón group at Laupheim Elementary School.

New sounds. New ideas. New inspiration.
In this clip, Rhani Krija — multi-percussionist and Schlagwerk endorser — explores a fresh combo:
one Flap from our new FlapBoard FB300 paired with the Pocket Bongo WB16, one of our latest Cajon add-ons.

This setup brings clear clap-sounds, warm bongo tones, and playful textures into a compact percussion kit — perfect for cajon players, drummers, and percussionists looking to expand their sound palette or add creative accents to their drum setup.

Listen to the groove, feel the dynamics, and imagine what these new tools could bring to your kit. 🎶
