[@casssandraloy8701]

As a percussionist, I have experience playing both the triangle and tambourine and let me just say that the tambourine is harder to keep quiet during rests than actually playing the notes, making it hard to play the rhythm accurately. Getting a clear tone on the triangle is harder than you think, especially if it's only played once as a solo. The triangle is essentially one metal bar bent into a triangle with the ends leaving a gap at one of the corners. If you hit the triangle on the 'wrong' side (same side as the open corner), it produces a wavering pitch as the sound waves travel different lengths to the gap of the bar. To make to triangle sound clean and pure, you have to hit it on the opposite side to the gap in the bar, therefore the sound waves travel an equal distance to the opening. Also, dynamics are hard to master on the triangle, as one tiny touch will still produce ample sound Just trying to educate non-percussionists :)

[@botttttle]

Well said.

[@KiouSky]

I did use to think, like a lot of people, that triangle was only "ding ding"... then heard a freakin' amazing triangle solo in a Marcus Miller live and it definitly changed my mind on the subject. I'm not surprised it can be that difficult to play well. :D Thank you for the explanations !

[@rubenmoons7457]

everything fun and games until you drop the triangle and deafen everyone.

[@sparkshot289]

I was told at a very young age by my music teacher that the triangle is one of the most difficult instruments to play. I never underestimated the skill of a percussionist who played the triangle. I would argue its scarier to play the triangle than performing as a solo violinist
