Jean,

Percussion does have pitch. Some percussion, pianos for instance, have definite pitch. Some percussion, maracas for instance, have indefinite pitch. I direct you to my song on CDBaby, you can reach through the link below, Christmas in Chicago. For percussion I am using two seedpods from some kind of South American tree. Their pitch is relatively mid to high, but indefinite (if not indefinite, then what is the note?).

I'm all for changing the subject, but the thread was about the four components. I'll start another thread and maybe we'll go 'round some more...I love it. JPFers are smart and love to go 'round.

All the Best,
Mike

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash
