About Latin Percussion For over half a century LP has crafted classic percussion instruments as well as patented hundreds of improvements and new designs for musical instruments that meet the exacting standards of professional musicians. Latin Percussion instruments have been featured in thousands of the world’s most famous chart-topping recordings – from classic salsa – to classic rock. LPs range of product includes congas bongos cowbells timbales cajons shakers and effect percussion instruments. In fact LP is such an essential part of so many musical genres it’s nearly impossible to turn on a radio or listen to a playlist and not hear an LP instrument. In 1956 Martin Cohen a young mechanical engineer from the Bronx happened upon New York’s famous Birdland jazz club. He walked in and was immediately captivated by the sound and energy of Latin Jazz. Martin Cohen was so taken with the infectious music that he wanted his own set of bongos. Unfortunately due to trade embargoes high quality Cuban-made bongos were unavailable in the United States. So Cohen put his engineering skills to use and created his own set of bongos. In 1964 Martin Cohen founded Latin Percussion (LP) and was soon delivering bongos cowbells and other instruments in brown paper bags to musicians. Cohen utilized this close connection with artists of the Latin Music szene which contributed greatly to the success story of the brand and which is still part of the company philosophy – the needs of performing musicians are placed ahead of everything else. Today Latin Percussion instruments are considered the world’s best percussion instruments.
