Companion summary
Have you ever heard a rainstick make that swooshing, swishing sound like real rain falling? Real musicians use shakers in bands and orchestras all around the world to add exciting rhythms. A simple handful of rice inside a sealed tube can make a beautiful, rattling beat all on its own. When you finish your shaker, try tapping it fast, then slow, and see how the sound changes.
Listen!
