Zampogna



Watercolor and Pencil on A5 Paper

The Italian Zampogna is unique, with two chanters—one for each hand—arranged for playing in harmony.
The chanters and two drones are held in one stock, and all have double reeds.

The hide bag is usually made of sheep stomach, that particular is a catalyst, clearly seen.

Hi, I am wondering if you have an account on Weku? I am the Weku moderator. I found an account @blackwater-house which posts your artworks.
Is that your account?
Just want to make sure no one steals your works.

Hi @catwomanteresa, it is very thoughtful of you.
Yes, it is I. I do have an account here too with the same name, I was going to write about Art history and Artistic Technique on it but, I am not a natural writer so I still cannot get on with it.
Thank You for looking out for me.

Very cool design, @lady-idra! That instrument has a very cool sound but it seems exhausting to play it.

Hiii!! Thank you @trincowski.
To be sincere, I dislike the continuous high pitched sound made by the drone, but i like the sound of the chanter.

Having said that, this is the Bass version of it, and is very much of my liking. :) Have a good day.

PS: about that competition, yes I knew they were inviting me. but no one has posted anything, I went on their site and...nothing, so I dropped a line to you (nominator ¦;^), just in case you knew where it's taking place. As always thank you for your support.
