The rhythm is synonyme of life and “tapping” is the essence of sound and music. As we have understood the value of rhythm and percussion, we integrate them daily in the creation, the entertainment, the education. At the same time, the modern technologies allow us to learn about other civilisations, instruments and music. In the book An Introduction to folk percussion there is a presentation and conversation of important subjects for known and less known percussion instruments, so that we can enter their world. “The culture of percussion instruments” begins from the contact with the percussion instruments, and is extended to our concept about the sound, the music, the instruments, but also the connection of our natural and cultural environment with them. A functional, but also critical development of relevant subjects is also included in this book.
