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 highlycomplex meSchuS. This is a very large instrument, not at all easily movedfrom place to place, which consists of a network of interlocking tubes. Onetube terminates in the mouthpiece (ngujlep) into which the player blows(SuS). The instrument's pitch and timbre are modified by fingeringstrategically 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 themeSchuS most resembles that of large pipe organs, but that characterization isnot really flattering to either instrument.
