Bladder Pipe By Cip
Available now.
Reconstruction of an extinct woodwind instrument, which could be found in the cabinet of instruments as late as the 17th century, as is testified by many iconographic and literary sources.

The instrument has a reed-cap, which at the same time serves as an air reservoir, allowing a so-called continuous tone during playing. Instead of using the original material - a tanned pig's bladder - this is manufactured in fine leather. The instrument is furnished with a single beating reed and it has a diatonic scale in the range of a ninth.

Individually made to order.
Key:
C major (Scale: c - d1; a1 = 440 Hz).

Price: £245.00
Postage: £15.00 (UK) | £25.00 (Europe) | £35.00 (North Amercia) | £35.00 (Rest of World)
