Introduction to Hand Percussion: Definition and History
Hand Percussion refers to a broad category of percussion instruments that are played with the hands rather than with sticks or mallets. These instruments are among the earliest forms of musical expression, with origins tracing back to ancient civilizations across Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America.

Over time, they evolved and became integral to various musical genres, including folk, traditional, and modern music styles like jazz, pop, and world music.
