Sounds Like:-CaixasThe snare drum can roll as well as providing a regular beat. You need to be quick with the sticks to play this one.-AgogoBellsThese add a musical hint to the thrumming rhythm. With lighter melodies, the bells provide tuneful accompaniment.-SurdoWe use these big drums in two sizes: high (segundo) and low (Primeiro). They are the bass of the rhythms, keeping time.-TamborimA high-pitched rat-a-tat-tat sound that offers complicated rhythms. These players give the band a whirl of movement.-RepeniquesA versatile instrument that combines hands and sticks to give a striking sound. Also a popular lead instrument.-OtherThis section includes a whole range of other percussion e.g. Vibraslap, Chocolho, Ganza, Claves, shekere, Cuica, Pandeiro, Whistles, Triangles, Cow Bells, Bongos, Berimbau, Caxixiand more. They give a great balance to the rhythms adding colour and texture to the great sound
