This Kenyan woodwind instrument with a double reed is known on the East African coast as the nzumari, or bung'o among the Duruma. The instrument has a cylindrical body made of bamboo and a conical funnel made of softwood with burnt-in decorations.  A strongly curved, carved lip support made of coconut is attached to a metal sleeve wrapped in raffia as a reed support, above which is the mouthpiece made of four palm leaf lamellae, which is traditionally made from local grasses. The instrument has four tone holes, but no thumb hole.
