In Redwall: Gonff used a reed flute in
Mossflower. The flute (although not necessarily the reed type) is probably the most popular instrument on
the ROC. |
|
|
Appearance: The reed flute is a very simple
instrument that looks much like a recorder, except with a softer tone.
It's made out of a sturdy, large reed, typically bamboo, although other
strong reeds can be used as well. They can be very ornately decorated
or not decorated at all. |
|
|
Use: The bamboo pipe is played much like a
recorder. Air is blown softly into the mouthpiece, though not
overblown as that can cause an ear-splitting, high-pitched sound that's most
unpleasant to hear. The fingering is not difficult, although attaining
chromatics can be. |
