Popular Instruments Utilized by Haitian Musicians

One of the most outstanding features in many genres of Haiti music is the medium or fast tempo beats that are produced by percussion instruments used such as the traditional drums. The use of percussion instruments by the Haitian musicians can be attributed to the fact that a remarkable percentage of Haitian people have an African origin. The percussion instruments' beats have contributed to the vibrancy of Haiti music as the dancers are propelled to dance vibrantly and fast so as to move along the rhythms of the drums.
