Yes. Although there are pitches within the bells of the instrument, it is still categorized as percussion. Think of the "steel drum".. it is a percussion instrument with high-pitched notes affiliated. When something is used in the sense of rhythm, or when something is struck with a stick, mallet or hammers, it is considered a percussion instrument.
