Triangles are non-pitched.
The frequency range of a triangle instrument is typically between 300 Hz and 500 Hz. The exact range can vary depending on the size and tuning of the instrument.
A small percussion instrument with 3 sides is called a triangle. It is a simple idiophone instrument made of a steel rod bent into a triangle shape. It is played by striking it with a metal beater.
The exact origins of the triangle instrument are unknown, but a number of paintings from the Middle Ages depict the instrument being played by angels, which has led to the belief that it played some part in church services at that time. Other paintings show it being used in folk bands. The triangle started appearing in marching bands as early as the 1700s.
A definite pitched instrument produces sound at fixed frequencies that are constant at each position or setting. Example: a piano is a definite pitched instrament. When you press Middle C on the Keyboard the same tone occurs every time. "Digital sound is another example" Where a indefinate pitched instrument is linear or analog in that there is no specific separation between notes. Trombones are a great example, because the slide allows the instrument to not only play a clear precise note such a Middle C, you can plan an near infinate numbers of tones between Middle C and C sharp by minute changes in the position of the slide. Another way to look at it is, stairs versus ramps. You go up and down stair in measured amounts, no stopping between steps. A ramp has infinite points you can stop and start from. Hope this helps.
Some percussion instruments that do not produce definite pitches include the snare drum, bass drum, and tambourine. These instruments create sound through the vibration of the instrument itself or the impact of a material on the instrument, resulting in a non-pitched or indeterminate sound.
A vibraphone is a pitched percussion instrument.
The Triangle
A triangle is not necessarily pitched or non-pitched. It is more of an accessory.
Drums
Yes. You hit it to play it, and it vibrates.
Any percussion that can't be tuned is non pitched. cowbells, triangle, tambourine
yes
Cabasa
an instrument that is used in percussion that has no actual moving pitch. snare drum for example.
A pitched percussion instrument play numerous pitches (i.e. xylophone), while nonpitched percussion instruments play one pitch (i.e. snare drum).
Non-pitched percussion instruments are used for a few reasons, providing a beat and a cool backbone to the song. Pitched percussion instruments are usually used for harmony or the melody of a song, they don't have that backbeat that a snare or a bass has, and a snare and a bass don't have the melody to the song, such as a Marimba would.
The recorder is considered a non-pitched instrument in the traditional sense because it does not produce a specific pitch when played alone; its sound can vary based on technique and breath control. However, it does produce distinct pitches when played with proper fingering, making it capable of playing melodies. Therefore, while it can create specific notes, it is mainly classified as a non-pitched instrument in terms of its inherent qualities.
