Day 19 ~ Greece (Tsabouna)



The Tsabouna is the Greek version of bagpipes, without the drones.  It is made of goatskin, and inflated by blowing into the mouthpiece.  At the other end of the instrument is a flute which is played with the fingers.  It was invented by Greek shepherds some 2000 years ago.



This 40-day Virtual World Tour of Music correlates with the World Music House kickstarter crowdfund. (Click the orange words for more details!)
