A drum kit (also called a drum set,[a] trap set, or simply drums) is a collection of drums, cymbals, and sometimes other auxiliary percussion instruments set up to be played by one person.[1] The drummertypically holds a pair of matching drumsticks or special wire or nylon brushes; and uses their feet to operate hi-hat and bass drum pedals. 

A standard kit usually consists of:[2]

• A snare drum, mounted on a stand

• A bass drum, played with a beater moved by a foot-operated pedal

• One or more tom-toms, including rack toms and/or floor toms

• One or more cymbals, including a ride cymbal and crash cymbal

• Hi-hat cymbals, a pair of cymbals that can be played with a foot-operated pedal

The drum kit is a part of the standard rhythm section and is used in many types of popular and traditional music styles, ranging from rock and pop to blues and jazz.
