Abstract
A compound percussion instrument comprises a first percussive instrument, such as a tambourine (1). The tambourine (1) has a frame (2) having a rim (3). A plurality of jingles (6) is mounted to the rim (3). A second percussive instrument includes a hammer and an anvil. The hammer or anvil may be a temple block (7) and the other of the hammer or anvil may be a fixed or movable striker (11, 14). A trigger (13) is mounted to a handle (5) of the tambourine (1). Actuation of the trigger (13) causes the hammer to strike the anvil to sound a musical note from the second percussive instrument. The compound percussion instrument may be played with a single hand and allows two different musical sounds to be obtained.
