pipe
| Small woodwind instrument popular in the 13th century. A whistle flute played only with the left hand, it freed the right hand to play the traditional accompanying drum, the tabor. |
| ‘Pipe’ is also a generic term used to describe the hollow cylinder or cone of woodwind and brass instruments in which air vibrates to generate sound; or one of many tubes which make up some musical instruments, as in an organ pipe or panpipes. |
