The History of Percussion
Percussion is a relatively new instrument in that sense. I don't think it was used in classical music up till like 1900 about, I mean, maybe, you know, first some timpani and but it always had like the function of giving signals to the military. And then around 1900, like composers really started picking up percussion also from all sides of the world. It's quite a long sort of window for contemporary music in a way.
