Hi!
What is the meaning of gongs in the orchestra?
- The percussion section provides a variety of rhythms, textures and tone colors to orchestral music.
- Percussion instruments can also be tuned or untuned.
- Tuned instruments play specific pitches or notes, just like the woodwind, brass and string instruments.
- Untuned instruments produce a sound with no definite pitch, like the sound of hitting two pieces of wood or metal together.
