Duct flute; mohoceño

Side-blown duct flute. Maker's (Aymara) name for the flute: moceño salleva; New Grove Dictionary (1984): mohoceño. The large bamboo pipe has a short, narrow blown pipe attached to the side at the proximal end. The blown pipe has a mouth hole at its lower end. Both ends of the pipe are stopped, and a short connecting pipe links the blown pipe to the top of the main pipe. Both ends of the blown pipe are attached to the body with orange cords. The main pipe has a inward taper towards the distal end, where a node has been opened. The window is small and rectangular and is positioned on the underside close to the proximal end. There are five large round finger holes on the top surface and two similarly sized vent holes at the sides near the distal end. A faint white line is painted between the finger holes, and the word: SALLEVA; is written longditudinally in green ink at the lower end of the top surface.
