Pop music is played on a standard drum kit, consisting:

1) Bass drum is the big deep-toned drum that sits on the floor and is played with a foot pedal

2) Snare is the main drum that makes the down-beat "Crack!" sound

3) Hi-hat is two matched cymbals that clap together using a foot-pedal.

4) There are a variety of tuned drums called tom-toms

5) There are a variety of cymbals that crash, splash, ride and ping

There are many types of other drums that figure prominently in today's music:

- Latin music features congas (big hand-drums), agogos (tuned cow bells), and timbales

- Bongos are a pair of hand drums that you hear on all types of music, especially African

- There are a variety of percussion sounds like maraccas (shakers) and claves (tuned sticks that click together)

The world of drums is wide and diverse. Start with a drum kit to play pop, or bongoes to accompany the regular drummer.

Don't forget the timpani, which are the big kettledrums that are the most important percussion in the symphony orchestra.
