An idiophone is any musical instrument that creates sound primarily by the instrument as a whole vibratingwithout the use of strings or membranes. It is the first of the four main divisions in the original HornbostelSachs scheme of musical instrument classification (see List of idiophones by HornbostelSachs number). The early classification of Victor-Charles Mahillon called this group of instruments autophones. * Most percussion instruments that are not drums are idiophones. HornbostelSachs divides idiophones into four main sub-categories. The first division is the struck idiophones (sometimes called concussion idiophones). This includes most of the non-drum percussion instruments familiar in the West.
