    Complete novice here, but I noticed that none of these is a wind instrument.

    Any thoughts?

      African instruments focus a lot more on percussion ðan ðeir counterparts in ð rest of ð world, wið singing being used to cover ð harmonic part winds do elsewhere.

      It’s actually a key reason why Jazz developed ð way it did, as an initial combination between European harmonies and African rhyðms.
