Description
Zampoña Chuli / Chili is a small (high pitch) variant of the Zampoña (Andean panflute) family. The Zampoña is a panflute made of two rows: Arka and Ira. They a held together and notes are alternating from one row to the other. This one is tuned to G major / E minor but starting on a B4 to extend the range.
The short pipes (high notes) are a bit flat, so you will need to fine tine them with wax or bleu/white tack to get them in tune. But this is optional and still work for practicing.
Here is a sound sample right off the print bed:
