Rock Music on Percussion Instruments

Joe Porter is a master percussionist who teaches his art at the University of Lethbridge Music Conservatory in Alberta. He does orchestral work, but doesn't limit himself to that form, as he also plays Brazilian, Japanese, Tahitian, and Caribbean percussion instruments.

In this short video, he runs through a rapid succession of instruments with songs that you'll recognize. He plays a few bars from Metallica's "Enter Sandman" on the hammered dulcimer, Guns 'n' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" on the steel pan, AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" on the slapophone, Metallica's "Master of Puppets" on the flairdrum, the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Californication" on the vibraphone, and Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" on the marimba.

Check out Porter's YouTube channel for more percussion covers of music from The Avengers, Minecraft, Naruto, and Encanto.
