Sae-p'iri

Contact the institution

The Korean sae-p'iri, the slender p'iri, is characterised by a smaller and softer tone than the hyang-p'iri (see VII c 969). This double-reed instrument is used in chamber music together with other wind or string instruments as well as for vocal accompaniment. It is comparatively more difficult to blow as the air is difficult to control due to the narrow inner bore and the narrow mouthpiece.
