Gong

A gong is a big, round piece of metal that makes a loud, deep sound when you hit it with a stick or a hammer. It looks like a big, flat circular plate and can be found in different sizes. People use gongs in music, especially in Asian cultures. They can be played by itself or together with other instruments to make beautiful sounds. Gongs are often used in ceremonies or celebrations, like weddings or funerals, or even in meditation rituals. When you hit a gong, the metal vibrates and creates sound waves that we can hear. It's a really cool instrument that makes a big noise and brings a lot of energy to any musical performance.
