The snake charming practice.

The Tiktiri or Pungi is a simple folk instrument traditionally played by snake charmers.

It is made of a small gourd with a blowing hole at the top and two attached pipes at the bottom.

Its sharp, penetrating sound is produced by reeds for each pipe inside the gourd.

It's great to add the snake-head-like shape on the instrument. It looks like leaves too. I always like the way you combine the instrument and musician
