The repinique, also known as repique, is a cylindrical percussion instrument with a bright and cutting tone. It is traditionally used in Brazilian samba where it marks calls, breaks and rhythmic variations. Its energetic sound makes it a key instrument in samba ensembles, batucadas and carnival percussion groups.
