The Encyclopedia of Percussion is an extensive guide to percussion
instruments, organized for research as well as general knowledge.
Focusing on idiophones and membranophones, it covers in detail both
Western and non-Western percussive instruments. These include not
only instruments whose usual sound is produced percussively (like
snare drums and triangles), but those whose usual sound is produced
concussively (like castanets and claves) or by friction (like the
cuica and the lion's roar). The expertise of contributors have been
used to produce a wide-ranging list of percussion topics. The
volume includes: (1) an alphabetical listing of percussion
instruments and terms from around the world; (2) an extensive
section of illustrations of percussion instruments; (3) thirty-five
articles covering topics from Basel drumming to the xylophone; (4)
a list of percussion symbols; (5) a table of percussion instruments
and terms in English, French, German, and Italian; and (6) an
updated section of published writings on methods for percussion.
