Peruvian Panpipes
The panpipe (also called “panflute” or “syrinx”) is an ancient musical instrument, found
in Europe, Asia, and South America. Its name reflects its association with the god Pan
by the ancient Greeks, for whom the panpipe was a popular folk instrument. Panpipes
have long been a part of the music of Peru and other Andean cultures, and have seen
renewed interest in the world music and New Age movements.
The panpipe consists of a series of reeds of increasing length which are tied together in
a row. Each pipe sounds a single note; players move the instrument across their mouth,
placing the pipe for the desired note in front of their lips. Panpipes come in variety of
sizes, usually with ten or more pipes.
