Repique / Repinique Definition:
The repinique, also known as repique, is a cylindrical percussion instrument with a sharp, dry and cutting sound. Its shell can be made of wood or metal, and it uses plastic or natural heads. Originally from Brazil, it is a key instrument in samba, where it leads breaks, calls and rhythmic variations.
