Notes
KGT p. 75. Wind instruments (there is no overall term for them) range from thesimple flute or fife (Dov'agh), generally crafted from a bone, to the highly complex meSchuS. This is a very large instrument, not at all easily moved from place to place, which consists of a network of interlocking tubes. One tube terminates in the mouthpiece (ngujlep) into which the player blows(SuS). The instrument's pitch and timbre are modified by fingering strategically placed holes in the tubing and by moving the hands in various ways (to move the fingers in this way is to Heng). The sound emitted by the meSchuS most resembles that of large pipe organs, but that characterization is not really flattering to either instrument.
