The history of any musical instrument originates in the distant past. So percussion instruments arose precisely then. It is known that they first appeared when they just started to produce tools.
Such instruments have a large family, which can include triangles, cymbals, snare and large drums, tom-toms and much more. Some add to this family and keyboards, for example, a piano. But it is customary to call it not a percussion but a keyboard-percussion instrument.
These beautiful musical percussion instruments are often used in the game of a symphony orchestra. When you hear such beautiful sounds, you don’t want to stop, you just can’t enjoy them to the end. I want to listen and listen.
Percussion instruments of a symphony orchestra are, for the most part, bells, cymbals, triangles, drums and others. Of course, not all, but the most basic inventions that are used in such industries, we have listed.
Another representative of the drum family is the xylophone, which we often played in childhood. You need to play it with wooden sticks or "goat legs". It is believed that xylophone is the oldest tool that arose as a result of a stick strike on a dry log in primitive times.
Percussion instruments can be listed for a very long time, because there are a great many of them. But everyone knows that nothing relates to drums more than drums, whether they are large or small, or maybe even electronic. Not a single concert of a rock band or an ordinary collective can do without drums, because they make such a wonderful sound that charges all the audience.
Nowadays, there are electronic drum sets, which are the most compact and take up little space, their sound is also different from ordinary drums. On such electronic installations, it is possible to adjust the frequency of sound, obtaining the most varied vibrations from this, while on ordinary drums this effect cannot be achieved.
Electronic drums are such a device that can replace all instruments at once, because you can use the keys to adjust the frequency to any of them. For electronic installations sticks are optional, you can play on them simply with your fingers. In addition, you can create such a variety of beautiful sounds that they are often used in clubs, at electric music concerts, as well as for voice-over of computer games and much more.
Currently, there are so many tools that it is simply impossible to count.
Percussion instruments are diverse in appearance and sound. They are completely different from each other in the same way as they are not like families of other musical instruments.
They may be so different and they have so few similarities, but still there is something that unites them. The fact is that this family was called not for nothing percussion, because only in such instruments the sound is extracted by hitting the subject.
