A percussion detecting apparatus and an electronic percussion instrument, which are capable of not only providing excellent percussion feeling, but also visually indicating a percussion pattern of a beat applied to a percussion surface, so as to serve for percussion practice as well as to increase interest in the percussion practice. A head of the percussion detecting apparatus is formed of an air-permeable material and has a light transmitting property. The head includes a percussion surface. A drum shell supports the head. A head sensor detects a beat applied to the percussion surface of the head and outputs a beat signal indicative of the sensed beat. A light radiating part is disposed on an opposite side from the percussion surface of the head so as to perform visual indication corresponding to a percussion pattern of the beat applied to the percussion surface, at least through the percussion surface, based on the beat signal output from the head sensor.

What is claimed is: 1. A percussion detecting apparatus comprising: a percussion surface part formed of an air-permeable material and having a light transmitting property, and including a central part, a peripheral part, and an intermediate part located between the central part and the peripheral part; a support part that supports said percussion surface part at the central part of said percussion surface part; a detecting device that detects a beat applied to a percussion face of said percussion surface part and outputs a beat signal; and a light emitting/irradiating device that emits/irradiates light in accordance with the beat signal output from said detecting device when the beat is applied to the percussion surface of said percussion surface part, wherein said percussion surface part is formed into a cymbal-shaped form in which a central portion of said percussion surface part is projected, and wherein a lower surface portion of the intermediate part of said percussion surface part is tensioned towards and affixed to the support part via an extension member. 2. A percussion detecting apparatus comprising: a percussion surface part formed of a mesh material and having a light transmitting property, and including a central part, a peripheral part, and an intermediate part located between the central part and the peripheral part; a support part that holds a periphery of said percussion surface part; and a detecting device that detects a beat applied to a percussion surface of said percussion surface part and outputs a percussion signal, wherein a central holding part is provided at a center portion of said support part so as to project upward, wherein the central part of said percussion surface part is supported by said central holding part, and wherein a lower surface portion of the intermediate part of said percussion surface part is tensioned towards and affixed to said support part, so that said percussion surface part is formed into a cymbal-shaped form in which a central portion of said percussion surface part is projected. 3. A percussion detecting apparatus of claim 2, wherein said detecting device includes a first contactless percussion detecting sensor which is out of contact with said percussion surface part and a second percussion detecting sensor disposed between the peripheral part of said percussion surface part and a portion of said support part opposed to the peripheral part of said percussion surface part. 4. A percussion detecting apparatus comprising: a percussion surface part formed of a mesh material and having a light transmitting property, and including a central part, a peripheral part, and an intermediate part located between the central part and the peripheral part; a support part supporting a periphery of said percussion surface part; and a detecting device that detects a beat applied to a percussion surface of said percussion surface part and outputs a percussion signal, wherein a central holding part is provided at a center portion of said support part so as to project upward, wherein the central part of said percussion surface part is supported by said central holding part, and wherein said percussion surface part is pulled downward and is fixed using an intervening member interposed between said support part and a lower surface portion of said percussion surface part located in vicinity of said central holding part, so that said percussion surface part is formed into a cymbal-shaped form in which the central part of said percussion surface part is projected. 5. A percussion detecting apparatus of claim 4, further comprising: wherein said detecting device is a contactless percussion detecting sensor which is out of contact with said percussion surface part, and wherein said light emitting/transmitting device is disposed at a same location as said detecting device as viewed in a direction obtained by connecting a central part and the peripheral part of said percussion surface part. 6. A percussion detecting apparatus comprising: a percussion surface part formed of a mesh material and including a central part, a peripheral part, and an intermediate part located between the central part and the peripheral part a support part that holds a periphery of said percussion surface part at the central part of said percussion surface part; and a detecting device that detects a beat applied to a percussion surface of said percussion surface part and outputs a percussion signal, wherein said percussion surface part is formed into a cymbal-shaped form in which the central part of said percussion surface part is projected, wherein said detecting device is disposed below said percussion surface part at the intermediate part between the central part and the peripheral part of said percussion surface part so as to face said support part, wherein said detecting device is a contactless percussion detecting sensor which is out of contact with said percussion surface part, and a lower surface portion of the intermediate part of said percussion surface part is tensioned towards and affixed to the support part via an extension member.
