Can anyone help me please? My friends brought me back a Laudennas from Sardinia last year and I just can't get the two drone pipes to sound. It came with a blob of beeswax which I presume is either to weight the reeds or just to seal the mouthpiece into the pipe. My question is this....The ends that go into the mouth are sealed/blocked, is this correct or should you be able to blow through the pipe and sound the reeds from below? Any hints as to how I can set these up would be much appreciated.CheersGary
Ciao! "Aulos" è il nome della composizione che hai scritto per Launeddas? Se puó interessarti ti allego un mio video che può aiutarti col fiato continuo, io penso che per suonare le Launeddas sia indispensabile! th-cam.com/video/6vo2ehRhb2Y/w-d-xo.html
si il brano si intitola Aulos, ma è suonato su una launeddas (mista, cioè composta da due parti di due launeddas tagliate su scale differenti) e sonata da Fabio Melis.
+Mikayla Jaunay Very ignorant remark. The fact that they used microtonal intervals doesn't mean that they hadn't developed a strong theory and practice around harmony and tuning. Perhaps you should open up your ears and realize that today's tuning is just one stage in a larger and very complex history.
=) They definitely had developed strong theory around harmony! Perhaps I should have used the word "evolve," and stated that I am glad todays tuning is less complex (well.. depends on the genre) and that the above statement was simply personal taste, as I prefer the very simple pentatonic sound, even in harmony =) Also, as I am a classically trained "a440" musician, despite this being their version of tunefulness, it sounds out of tune, simply because of the sound environment I have been brought up in =)
Has nothing to with with tuning. It's about scales. The greeks played with exotic sounding scales. You really believe they didn't knew how to tune their instruments? Pythagoras was the first man on history to develop the tonal system as we know today. You have to tune up your ears. This is ancient music. No offense intended.
Un sonido muy solemne,dramático y desolador.
De acuerdo.
The original soundtrack of drama. Music like this was probably the accompaniment to Aeschylus's plays.
Muy bueno
Felicitaciones 🍾🎈
Your performance is fine and rich. *Thoroughly* stunning.
bellasa qustasa launeddas chin qustoso sonoso e melodiasa anticasa:)))
This was mostly used to accompany poetry and drama, even throughout Roman times.

That was soooooo awesome!!!!
this reminds me of the movie midsommar
Please listen launeddas "Maestro luigi lai"
Hey Cristian! I am a flutist, and I'd really like to know from where did you get the Aulos? Who built it for you? Or you built it by yourself?(:
Aulos is the title of composition, the instrument he plays is a Launeddas, a traditional musician of Sardinia
The aulos is Phrygian originally. The Romans called it the "tibia."
Yes.The Romas have Aulos from Etruscans who was Dorians✌️
amazing!
Blessed Samhain to all my fellow heathens
When the Troyans see the Greek fleet after taking Helena
Interessante rielaborazione del materiale.
great
❤️
Where can i buy and learn how to play these pipes?
I think they have to be custom made. To learn go search a university with a historical/anthropological or musical focus
its good.. but creepy really creepy music

Cristian Gentilini Ho pensato che ci fosse stata un pò di confusione tra Aulos e Launeddas! Invece Aulos è il titolo..Buon lavoro!
Aulos é il nome in greco, se non sbaglio, anche wiki sembra pensarlo: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aulos
Aulos é il nome dello strumento, no? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aulos
space :P
Il suono assomiglia molto alla cornamusa scozzese
So glad tuning has developed =/
