Chokwe - Angola (Senza Prezzo di Riserva)
A Chokwe whistle flute, Eastern Angola, DRC, Zambia, fine, elaborate facial features ornamented with scarifications surmounted by a three parted, striated coiffure. Certificate of origin and Provence.
Sub-Saharan whistles draw attention to special events like the arrival of a king and convey messages or signal during hunts. In ensembles, each whistle may sound at a specific time to form a melody. Whistles are crafted in traditional forms. Though the whistle's carved images are inverted when played, the depictions may add to its prestige. Source: Met Museum NY.
