Home Listener's Guide The Songs Who's Who ... Search Percussion Instruments What would an exotica/space age pop site be without percussions? In music, any instrument whose sound is produced by a blow from another instrument or from a stick is a percussion instrument. Scientifically percussion instruments are classified as idiophones and membranophones . The idiophones are those which are made of a substance such as wood or metal, which vibrates when struck. Membranophones are those whose sound-producing agent is a stretched skin. Idiophones are tuned to definite pitches and include the Bell, the Xylophone, the Celesta, and the Glockenspiel. Those of indeterminate pitch include the Castanets, the Cymbals, the Gong, the Tambourine, and the Triangle. from "Around the World in Percussion," Billy Mure, Strand SLS 1021 Before the final selections were made, more than a hundred different drums were listened to analytically. Each had a different tonality and produced a different sound. Forty sizes of gongs were auditioned. Innumerable cymbals were tested. Each one was appraised for the musical seasoning that it might add to the finished product. from "Far Away Places," Enoch Light and his orchestra, Command RS822SD

Site Map Percussion Instruments of Ancient Egypt In the ancient Egyptian language, "ear" and "mind" are synonymous, an acknowledgment that the mind gives meaning to information received as sound vibrations. All music, whether in the temple, the palace, or the street, was termed hy, which was defined as 'joy' or 'gladness'. The symbol for joy was a woman playing a round frame drum. As in most ancient cultures the percussion instruments were identified with the primary deities. The Egyptian goddess of music, Hathor, and the goddesses, Isis and Sekhmet, were shown playing the sistrum, menit and round frame drums. The gods, Bes and Anubis, were shown playing frame drums. Percussion instruments were considered to be particularly imbued with the spiritual or shamanistic power to influence and transform consciousness and therefore reality.
