Many instruments are used in Zambia, a common one is the hand piano. It is a small instrument with iron keys on top of a rectangular box; they use it by plucking it with their thumbs. Another instrument they play is called the Silimba. It is sort of like a xylophone, it has flat wooden keys mounted over gourds. The most common instrument is the drums. They play them during rituals, ceremonies, celebrations, and community communication.
