→ Czech: fujara

→ Polish: fujara

Fuller form in dialectal fluieră, of uncertain or disputed origin; possibly from Latin flātūrālis (adj.) ‘blowing’, from flātūra ‘act of blowing’. Other theories suggest a Vulgar Latin root *flibula, from fibula (compare sense of flute in Latin tibia), or a derivative of the related verb fluiera, or a substratum (substrate) word. Alternatively, it may be of originally imitative origin. Compare Aromanian fluiarã. Borrowed as Albanian flojere, Greek φλογέρα (flogéra).

onomatopoeic

imitative


didgeridoo

didgeridoos (plural)
didjeridu (alternative)
didjeridoo (alternative)
digeridoo (alternative)

Likely onomatopoeic in reference to the sound made by the instrument, or the words spoken into the instrument to play it.
The earliest known description of the instrument was in 1829 by Captain Collet Barker, in which it was described as making the sound didoggerry whoan. In 2002, Lonergan proposed that the term could derive from Irish dúdaire dubh (“black hummer”) or Scottish Gaelic dùdaire dùth (“native piper”), though this seems to be coincidental, since there is no corroborating evidence and the terms would refer to the player (rather than the instrument itself).

m+

A musical instrument, endemic to the Top End of Australia, consisting of a long hollowed-out log which, when blown into, produces a low, deep mesmerising drone with sweeping rhythms.

Borrowed from Italian timpani, plural of timpano (“drum”), from Latin tympanum (“drum”), from Ancient Greek τύμπανον (túmpanon), from τύπτω (túptō, “I strike, I hit”). Doublet of tympanum, timbre, timbal, and tymbal.

dbt

Since the timpani is a legato instrument, a note must be allowed to sound and ring to achieve the full effect of the drum.

2010, Steven L. Schweizer, Timpani Tone and the Interpretation of Baroque and Classical Music, Oxford University Press, →ISBN, page 38:

rattle

en-noun

rattle (countable and uncountable, plural rattles)

From Middle English ratelen, of uncertain origin; perhaps borrowed from Middle Dutch ratelen or of native origin related to Old English hratele, hrætele (“a plant known for its rustling or rattling sound”), ultimately imitative. The noun (c. 1500) is from the verb.

unc

uncertain

ratel

zoology: organ that produces a rattling sound

râle

The rattles of Isis and the cymbals of Brasilea nearly enough resemble each other.

1614, Walter Ralegh [i.e., Walter Raleigh], The Historie of the World […], London: […] William Stansby for Walter Burre, […], →OCLC, (please specify |book=1 to 5):

crythau (plural)
crwth
grwth (soft)
nghrwth

From Middle Welsh crwth, from Proto-Brythonic *kruθ, from Proto-Celtic *kruttos (“round thing”), perhaps related to Latvian krūtis (“breast, bust”), from Proto-Indo-European *krū̆t; but it could instead be loaned from a non-Indo-European substrate. Possibly related to Proto-Celtic *krundis (“round”). Compare Old Irish crott (“harp, lute”).


concertina

Borrowed from English concertina. First attested in 1854.


night owl

night owls (plural)
night-owl (alternative)

From night + owl, from the fact that the bird is active at night.

The night-owl,—a mug-shaped instrument, with an orifice in its side, through which a whistle is inserted,—when used, is partly filled with water, to give the tremulous owl-hoot sound.

1874 May, James Judson Lord, “Haydn’s Children’s Symphony [actually the Toy Symphony, possibly by Leopold Mozart or Edmund Angerer]”, in [Mary Mapes Dodge], editor, St. Nicholas, volume I, number 7, New York, N.Y.: Scribner & Co., →OCLC, page 429, column 2:

At the right was the piano, with a young lady seated, ready to play. Just before the curtain, and arranged in a semicircle, sat the juvenile orchestra,—Kitty with a tin trumpet; Jane with her night-owl filled with water and ready to pipe up; Julia with another bird, but having a different note; John with his drum, and Edward with his trumpet.

1889, Charles Barnard, chapter VI, in The Tone Masters: A Musical Series for Young People, Boston, Mass.: New England Conservatory of Music, →OCLC, book I (Mozart and Mendelssohn), pages 189–190:

(music) A musical instrument which imitates an owl's hoot, consisting of a receptacle partly filled with water and a mouthpiece that is blown into.


campana

Chavacano: campana

→ Cebuano: kampana

→ Papiamentu: kampana

→ Tagalog: kampana

a bell-shaped (or roughly) object or component (such as the canopy of a parachute)


caja

→ Cebuano: kaha

→ Tagalog: kaha

Probably borrowed from Catalan caixa or Occitan caissa, from Latin capsa. (Latin /-ps-/ yields palatal outcomes in the latter two, but not in Spanish; cf. Latin ipse > Sp. ese, Catalan eixe.) Related to English case and cash and, more distantly, Spanish quijada.

sambuca

sambucae (plural)
sambucas (plural)
sambuke (alternative)

From Latin sambūca, from Ancient Greek σαμβύκη (sambúkē), ultimately from Aramaic סַבְּכָא (sabbəḵā).

Cymbals, trumpets and organs (familiar Old Testament vocabulary) appear conventionally enough as cymballe, trwmpedau and organau, but the more obscure psaltria, trigona, and sambucae (psalteries, trigons and sambucae: three types of Greek harp) become psalteris, kornets, shalmes, [a] dulcimus in translation (Chapter Six, paragraph 7); cornets and shawns are, of course, wind instruments.

2007, Sally Harper, “Part III: Welsh Music in an English Milieu c.1550–1650”, “19. A Welsh Translation of John Case’s Apologia Musices”, in Music in Welsh Culture Before 1650: A Study of the Principal Sources, Routledge, published 2016, →ISBN, page 334:

As the band’s traditional instrumentalist, Yuri Callisaya, shrilled on the quena, the band’s fans sang along with Mr. Méndez: “Ama sua, ama llulla, ama quella,” which translates as, “Don’t steal, don’t lie, don’t be lazy.”

kecapi

From Indonesian kecapi, from Sundanese ᮊᮎᮕᮤ (kacapi, “zither”), probably from Sanskrit कच्छपी (kacchapī, “lute”).

These stories have been handed down from generation to generation in the form of ballads, performed with accompanying music by the "kecapi," a kind of zither.

She attributes the initial idea to her husband, who suggested combining the kecapi with suling in 1960, shortly after their move to the kabupaten Sidenreng-Rappang (Sidrap), where he had been assigned as district head (Ind. bupati).
