More Racial Instruments: Drums?

I'd love more unique instruments to be in the game, with different zones having different sounds to sample from and enjoy... (despite being teased about altmer being beautiful harp players throughout the base game, only for there not to be a single harp bard, and yet harp furnishings IN summerset when it released was immensely disappointing) I have greatly enjoyed the Qanun and Esraj from Elsweyr, and the miredrums and Vossa-Satls from murkmire... So I'm going to pitch some ideas regarding percussion instruments that could be in lore, and you guys could give some feedback? (Apologies beforehand, I don't quite know how to get the videos to play here on the forums without turning them into links)

Turtle shell drums for argonians (big ones made using haj mota shells, might sound like a pura drum) and smaller ones that could be played like xylophones in a group.

After that... perhaps steel drums for redguards? I'll admit, I would have LOVED to hear steel drums in Stros M'kai. Not necessarily an instrument that would be wide-spread in redguard culture, but more or less a thing the sailors are associated with

Then one of these... Well, khajiit absorbed a little bit of Akaviri culture... I could definitely see these being in Khajiiti temples. Maybe call them moon-drums?
