Definición

  • Sets of individual percussion vessels, owing to the solidity and elasticity of their substance, vibrate and radiate sound when struck either with non-sonorous objects (hand, stick, striker) or against non-sonorous objects. The vibration is weakest near the apex from which each instrument is suspended. The player creates clearly defined individual strokes. (en)
