It is five or six hollowed reeds or bamboo sections attached together horizontally in ascending size order to produce something of an abbreviated scale. One produces sound on it by blowing accross the top as on a coke bottle. It produces a simple sound and elementary melodies--sort of eery and haunting--but obviously nothing terribly complex. There was a guy on late night TV a few years ago who hawked his panflute albums--I passed on the opportunity to buy them all. I was somewhere in Peru or Panama (not at all close to each other but I just can't remember where) where I saw them being sold to tourists by the locals. There, I have exhaused my store of supposed knowledge on the subject.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21470205.post-1154536412365696382006-08-02T09:33:00.000-07:002006-08-02T09:33:00.000-07:00Ok, I've tried to be patient and wait until someon...Ok, I've tried to be patient and wait until someone else asked the question so I didn't sound stupid, but noone has, so, "what is a panflute"?Amy-Alisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473001359424037182noreply@blogger.com
