Concept information
Definition
- The air itself is the vibrator in the primary sense. The standing waves are significantly confined within the instrument itself. The air-stream passes through the player's vibrating lips, so gaining intermittent access to the air column which is to be made to vibrate. A side-blown conch shell serves as a trumpet. Oceania. (en)
