melody pipe การใช้
- Hornpipes are made of a single reed, a small diameter melody pipe with fingerholes, and a bell traditionally made of animal horn.
- The arghkl is primarily an Egyptian instrument, having a melody pipe with five to seven holes and a longer drone pipe without holes.
- The woodwind instrument consisting of a single reed, two small diameter melody pipes with finger holes and a bell traditionally made from animal horn.
- Unlike the similar mijwiz, the arghul only has fingering holes on one of the instrument's pipes ( the melody pipe ), and the drone pipe has a detachable length that allows the player to alter the pitch of the drone.
- The melody pipe has a " flea hole ", a common feature in Eastern bagpipes : the top hole on the chanter is very small and uncovering it raises the pitch of any other note by approximately a semitone, making the Hungarian pipe largely chromatic over its range ( it lacks a major seventh ).
- The second chanter, the " kontras韕 " or " kontra " ( " contra pipe " ) has a single finger hole and sounds either the lowest note on the melody pipe or drops to the dominant ( i . e ., on a pipe in A it sounds either A or E ).
- In the earliest illustrated forms of bladder pipe, such as the well-known example of the 13th century reproduced by Martin Gerbert from a manuscript at Sankt Blasien Abbey in the Black Forest, the bladder is unusually large, and the chanter ( or melody pipe ) has, instead of a bell, the carved head of an animal.
