Opis:

The whistle is a musical instrument made of wood. All types of whistles have the shape of a cylindrical tube, with or without holes.

The first whistle discovered on the territory of Romania, in Moldova, dates back 20,000 years ago.

In the last century, many inhabitants from the villages of Zarand Country (Arad, Alba and Hunedoara counties) were specializing in various crafts, including whistles.

Today there are very few whistle craftsmen who have inherited the father-to-son craftsmanship.

In this video, the last whistle master from the Dumbrava de Sus village, Ribita commune, shows us how to prepare and manufactured a whistle. He chooses the wood from the surrounding hills and can be of cherry tree plum tree, ash, hazelnut or willow.
