Really curious to know what they are made of. I am thinking they are
made from wood or am I thinking of another instrument? I am really poor at
remembering names but recall seeing an instrument made of wood which was a line
of flutes one could hold in both hands and play. Very nice to listen to
but as I remember it was being played by a fellow from Ecuador. So I might have
it confused as I don't recall the name.
"La cacerola conduce por tubería" is
equivalent to "the saucepan leads through
piping" if I´m to use my private translating machine.
Nay, the Andean pan pines are usually
called "zampoña" (general), "rondador"
(Ecuador) and "sicu" (Peru, Bolivia and
Argentina).
In Bolivia, at folk shows such as Marka Tambo,
in La Paz, I have seen pan pipes almost as
big as the performers themselves
It´s hard to understand how they can blow
such an instrument at an altitude of 3,000
meters above sea level.
