Calypso music typically features a variety of percussion instruments, including the steelpan, which is central to the genre. Other common percussion instruments include drums such as the drum kit, congas, and bongos, as well as traditional instruments like the maracas and tambourine. The use of these instruments contributes to the vibrant, rhythmic sound characteristic of calypso music. Additionally, the incorporation of handclaps and body percussion adds to the lively atmosphere of calypso performances.
