  • Percussion instruments are believed to be the oldest musical instruments next to the human voice and began with the simple clapping of hands or slapping of the chest and knees.
  • Drums made of alligator skins have been found in Neolithic China, dating back to 5500-2350 B.C.
  • The xylophone dates back to 2000 B.C. and has been documented in temple carvings​​
