Instruments from the Percussion family make their sound by being hit, scraped or shaken. They are played all over the world, in all types of music.
Percussion instruments can be tuned. This means they can play lots of pitched notes, like a xylophone or glockenspiel. Or they can be untuned, like drums, playing only one pitch.
