 * || [|PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS]

**Percussion** instruments are the rhythm section of the orchestra. They make sounds when they are struck, scraped, or rattled with hands or special sticks. Some percussion instruments have a definite highness or lowness, a quality called pitch, and some do not have a definite pitch. Xylophone, timpani, chimes, vibraphone, and Celesta are examples of pitched percussion instruments, while bass drum, snare drum, triangle, cymbals, and tambourine are non-pitched percussion instruments.

The percussion family has the most members, with new instruments added all the time. Modern percussion instruments include found objects such as flower pots, china plates, and tin cans.
