Mey (instrument)
The ''mey'' is a double-reed aerophone used in Turkish folk music. The ''mey'', ''duduk'', and '' balaban'' are almost identical, except for historical and geographical differences. Description A ''mey'' consists of three parts: ''ana gövde'' (main part), ''kamış'' (reed), and ''kıskaç'' (clip). #Cylindrical in shape and made of wood, the main part has seven finger holes on its front side, and one finger hole at the back. The ''mey's'' main tubular body is usually built from the wood of harder trees such as plum, walnut, beech, etc. It has a sound range of about one octave. There are three sizes of ''mey'': ''cura mey'' (smallest, highest pitched), ''orta mey'', and ''ana mey'' (largest, lowest pitched). #A double reed (''kamış'' in Turkish) essentially a large and almost flattened cylinder on the mouth side, and conical-round where it is attached to the main part, gives this instrument its characteristic deep sound. #A tuning-bridle called ''kıskaç'' (clip) mounte ...

The bore through the instrument is about in diameter. The double reed is made out of a single tube of cane about six cm long and pressed flat at one end. The performer uses air stored in his cheeks to keep playing the balaban while he inhales air into his lungs.

Double Reed
A double reed is a type of reed used to produce sound in various wind instruments. In contrast with a single reed instrument, where the instrument is played by channeling air against one piece of cane which vibrates against the mouthpiece and creates a sound, a double reed features two pieces of cane vibrating against each other. This means, for instruments with the double reed fully exposed, that the air flow can be controlled by the embouchure from the top, bottom and sides of the reed. The term ''double reeds'' can also refer collectively to the class of instruments which use double reeds. Structure and dimensions The size and shape of the reed depend on the type of double-reed instrument which is of two groups, conical and cylindrical. Even within families of instruments, for example, the oboe family, the reed for the oboe is quite different from that for the cor anglais (English horn). Oboe reeds are usually 7 mm (0.3 in) in width, while bassoon reeds are wider, from ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Monaulos
An ''aulos'' ( grc, αὐλός, plural , ''auloi'') or ''tibia'' (Latin) was an ancient Greek wind instrument, depicted often in art and also attested by archaeology. Though ''aulos'' is often translated as "flute" or "double flute", it was usually a double-reeded instrument, and its sound—described as "penetrating, insisting and exciting"—was more akin to that of the bagpipes, with a chanter and (modulated) drone. An aulete (, ) was the musician who performed on an ''aulos''. The ancient Roman equivalent was the ''tibicen'' (plural ''tibicines''), from the Latin ''tibia,'' "pipe, ''aulos''." The neologism aulode is sometimes used by analogy with ''rhapsode'' and ''citharode'' ( citharede) to refer to an ''aulos'' player, who may also be called an aulist; however, aulode more commonly refers to a singer who sang the accompaniment to a piece played on the aulos. Background There were several kinds of ''aulos'', single or double. The most common variety was a reed instru ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pey Au
The ''pey au'' (sometimes spelled ''pei au'' or ''pei ar'') (Khmer: ប៉ីអ) is a Cambodian musical instrument, similar to a flute but using a set of double reeds to produce sound. The instrument uses an external reed, cut from a prebos tree and flattened with small strips of ratan. The bundle is insterted into a hold at the top of the flute part of the instrument, creating a mouthpiece. The instrument's body is made of "narrow bore bamboo", narrower than that used for the '' khloy'' vertical flute and '' pey pok''. The instrument gives the pitch to be used in aareak and phleng kar wedding orchestras. Pitches are not standardized in Cambodia, although the spaces between pitches is.

Piri
The ''piri'' is a Korean double reed instrument, used in both the folk and classical (court) music of Korea. Originating in Central Asia, it was introduced to the Korean peninsula from China, and has been used there as early as the Three Kingdoms period, most notably in the states of Goguryeo and Baekje.

A typical ''piri'' has eight finger holes, seven of which are on the front, with the remaining one on the back for the thumb.
