Just by reading the topic readers can assume the idea of this article. As many people who don’t have detailed knowledge about music and instruments are not aware of the difference between them. To say in a single line drums are a part of percussion kits but percussion means to make sound by striking with hands or sticks for music. For example, if you check people like drum teachers in Washington DC, they only teach drums and not other sets of percussion instruments. There are multiple percussion instruments other than drums that percussionists handle.
 
Difference between drummer and percussionist:
 
Drums are one of the percussion instruments which make every drummer a partial percussionist. It is hard to differentiate for a beginner in the musical instruments line of work. If you check on the internet the term percussionist in Washington DC and the profile will show people with a wide range of music knowledge. To be very precise a percussionist is a musician with knowledge of multiple instruments other than drums like bongos, xylophone based on the style of music they are into.
 
Instruments:
 
Instruments on percussion are a lot and based on the style of music and the place the instrument varies. Drums are the well-known percussion kit as best drummers in Washington DC have years and years of practice and experience in this category. If you see pop or jazz music drums are best suited. For Brazilian percussion music instruments like chocalhos, matracas are very popular. In Indian traditional music Mirudhangam, tabla or Gadam are the percussion instruments. There are still more
 
  • Conga drum
  • Bass drum
  • Fiddlesticks
  • Hit-hat
  • Chime
  • Tambourine
  • Marimba
  • Xylophone
  • Electronic drum
  • Bongo drum
  • Cymbal
  • Hang

And adding together regular drum together with the list still goes on as of now if we research every locality specifically, we might get more.
