Les instruments de percussion à sons indéterminés produisent, comme leur nom l'indique, des sons qui sont indéterminés, c'est-à-dire qu'ils ne correspondent à aucune note particulière. Ils produisent plutôt des effets sonores. Les maracas, les cymbales, la batterie et le bâton de pluie en sont que quelques exemples. 1, record 1, French, - instrument%20de%20percussion%20%C3%A0%20sons%20ind%C3%A9termin%C3%A9s
