instruments. The orchestras of eastern people sometimes have a wonderful variety of these and other
kinds of percussion instruments, including drums of every size and shape. But in western symphony
orchestra percussion instruments are not very numerous. The bowl-shaped kettledrums, or timpani, are
almost always present. They give a clear, definite note and a sonorous tone that can be as soft or as
loud as the player wishes. Other types of drums may also be used.
i. Cymbals are brass plates that are clashed or jangled together. The triangle is a metal rod left open
at the corner. The xylophone is a row of wooden bars. The glockenspiel has metal bars that sound

regular percussion sections of the orchestra in western music.
