Panpipes are sets of graduated flutes joined together in a bunch shape. The sound is produced by blowing across the top of the holes. According to legend, the ancient Greek god Pan was in love with a nymph who was turned into a reed by another deity. Pan played upon this reed for consolation. Panpipes have been known for over 2,000 years. Their distinctive sound is heard in much South American folk music.
