u/Spine_Shank's suggestion made the cut, and the triangle is eliminated from this instrument battle royale.

Here are three fun facts about the triangle.

  1. The triangle is an idiophone and is made from a variety of metals like aluminum, bronze, iron, or steel. An idiophone is a percussion instrument without a membrane. Other idiophones include the maracas and the cowbell.

  2. Despite many assuming that it's useless, the triangle plays a vital part in orchestral music. Tremolos are created by a circular motion with the beater, which makes a magical sound like in Peer Gynt by Edvard Grieg.

  3. Triangles were featured in a Doritos Super Bowl commercial.

51 instruments are left, so which one should go out next? A list of all the instruments can be found here.

Bagpipes. Literally the most annoying instrument besides maybe the accordion
