Our Description

The pifano is a traditional flute from Brazil that is commonly used in rural and folk music, especially in the northeastern regions of Brazil. It is usually made from bamboo and has a distinctive high-pitched, piercing sound. The pífano is a key instrument in military-style bands and religious celebrations, particularly in the states of Pernambuco and Alagoas, where it is often accompanied by percussion instruments such as drums. It is similar to the Indian bansuri, and half holes can be used to create chromaticism.
