About Agogô
An agogô is a single or a multiple bell now used throughout the world but with origins in traditional Yoruba music and also in the samba baterias. The agogô may be the oldest samba instrument and was based on West African Yoruba single or double bells. The agogô has the highest pitch of any of the bateria instruments.
