Tolkala veljajo za najstarejša poznana glasbila. Delimo jih v dve veliki skupini: membranska tolkala in pa idiofonska tolkala. Prva imajo napeto opno preko določenega akustičnega telesa, druga so samozveneča glasbila. Družina tolkal je izredno velika, ob tem je zanimivo, da uvrščamo zaradi načina igranja med tolkala tudi klavir. Med velikimi imeni izvajalcev in izvajalk so Martin Grubinger, Patricia (Patsy) Dash, Susie Ibarra, Ray Cooper, Evelyn Glennie, Tim Curle, Robin DiMaggio, Sheila E., Keiko Abe, Vida Chenoweth, Edward Harrison, Leon Milo, Zeferino Nandayapa, Roland Haerdtner in še mnogi drugi.
