Hand percussion is a percussion instrument that is held in the hand. They can be made from wood, metal or plastic and are usually either shaken, scraped or tapped with fingers or a stick. It is a useful category in terms of a large percussion orchestra in that it identifies all instruments that are not drums or pitched percussion such as marimba and xylophone. Shakers{{Listen|filename=Caxixi.ogg|title=Caxixi|description=Large and small caxixi played together|filesize=620 KB|image=none|pos=left}} A shaker (percussion) is any instrument that makes a noise when shaken. Historically they were naturally occurring items such as seed pods. A caxixi is a basketwork shaker with a gourd base. Gourds are used all over the world and covered with a net with shells or seeds to create an instrument such as the shekere. Modern shakers are often cylinders made from metal wood or plastic containing small hard items such as seeds, stones, or plastic - an example is the Egg Shaker.There is another category of shaken instrument using jingles, little discs of metal which tap together when shaken. Tambourines fall into this category. {{clear}} Scrapers{{Listen|filename=Guiro.ogg|title=Modern Guiro|description=Sounds of the guiro|filesize=280 KB|image=none|pos=left}} This can be a wood, metal or plastic instrument which has ridges on its body. Often known as Guiro, rhythms are created by running a thin stick up and down the ridges at different speeds. Gourds or bamboo have traditionally been used as they have a resonant hollow body and can easily be cut with ridges. A common type from Asia is a carved wooden frog which has ridges cut on its back and its mouth and belly hollowed out.{{clear|left}} Cowbells{{Listen|filename=Agogo.ogg|title=Modern agogo|description=modern agogo rhythm pattern|filesize=150 KB|image=none}}{{Listen|filename=Cowbell.ogg|title=Cowbell|description=Cowbell pattern|filesize=200 KB|image=none}}Cowbells originate from the bells tied around the necks of livestock.
