吹奏樂器 (Wind Instruments)

就像打擊樂器及絃樂器一般，大部分的吹奏樂器源自於非常古老的民族樂器。 Misnice是一種由羊皮製成、長的像袋子的樂器。在歐洲，關於misnice的參考文件最早可回溯至第九世紀。misnice最先出現在北非，至於出現在東歐(塞爾維亞、匈牙利、烏克蘭及其他地方)的misnice其外形則與北非的misnice稍有不同。

如圖中所示，musician的演奏方式為向其中一根管子吹氣的同時，利用手指蓋住另一根管子上的洞。聆聽這段利用misnice所演奏的音樂錄音，它的聲音聽起來是不是跟現在的蘇格蘭風笛不一樣？

Just like percussion and strings, most wind instruments evolved from much older folk instruments. The misnice is a bagpipe-like instrument made out of the skin of a goat. In Europe, references to the misnice are found as early as the ninth century. The misnice was found in North Africa and in somewhat different forms in Eastern Europe (Serbia, Hungary, Ukraine, and elsewhere).

As you can see from the picture, the musician blows into one pipe while moving his fingers over holes in another pipe. Listen to the recording of the misnice. Does it sound different from the Scottish bagpipes we know today?
