    A drum kit (also drum set, kit, or trap set) is a collection of drums, cymbals and often

    other percussion instruments, such as cowbells,

    The traditional drum kit consists of a mix of drums (classified as membranophones,


    Hornbostel-Sachs high-level classification 2) and idiophones (Hornbostel-Sachs high-level
    classification 1, most significantly cymbals but also including the woodblock and cowbell for
    example).[3] More recently kits have also included electronic instruments (Hornbostel-Sachs
    classification 53), with both hybrid and entirely electronic kits now in common use.

    played with drum sticks (which may include rutes or brushes).

    A bass drum, played by a pedal operated by the right foot.

    A hi-hat stand and cymbals, operated by the left foot and played with the sticks,
    particularly but not only the right hand stick.

    One or more tom-tom drums, played with the sticks.

    One or more cymbals, played with the sticks, particularly but not only the right hand

    Beginnings of the drumkit:

    {Vaudeville was a theatrical genre of variety entertainment popular in the United States and
    Canada from the early 1880s until the early 1930s. Each performance was made up of a series
    of separate, unrelated acts grouped together on a common bill. Types of acts included popular
    and classical musicians, dancers, comedians, trained animals, magicians, female and male
    impersonators, acrobats, illustrated songs, jugglers, one-act plays or scenes from plays,
    athletes, lecturing celebrities, minstrels, and movies. A vaudeville performer is often referred
    to as a vaudevillian.}
