Aren't all instruments technically percussion instruments?

Your kind is called "dumb frogposter" for a reason, y'know that, right?

no, violin works with friction rather than percussion, piano is indeed a percussive instrument

wat u meen

>>69432636
Yes, but in violin, you scrape the strings with a tool.

How is blowing into or onto a shiny tube to produce poots and toots "technically" the striking of two solids to produce a sound?

>>69432645
well percussion is a way in which you PLAY an instrument and both drums, bongos and piano make sound by an act of hitting

>>69432645
hitting a hammer against a wire to create sound

>>69432682
Striking of air with metal. I didn't know it had to be a solid.

>>69432680
well yea but a violin without the arch becomes a fancy ukulele

>>69432709
constriction of the air is what produces the sound not collision

>>69432745
But you constrict the air by pushing down on metal buttons that push on the air, no?

>>69432745
no no the sound waves multiplying and reverberating against the tubes cause the sound

>>69432765
you're streching this way too much air instruments are not percussive, maybe accordion but idk

>>69432663
>>69432699
>>69432707
it was supposed to be a funny shitpost but it didn't work out very well
I'll practice it more

>>69432765
the pushing of buttons produces a dull and quiet clacking sound, which is not what a flute is renowned for

>>69432797
at least you tried, next time insult a minority

>>69432609
Theremin.

>>69432846
ur hitting the air

>>69433389
I'll be hitting you in a minute

>>69432609
yes
everything is merely vibration at it's essence
