Zampogna

Not to be confused with Zampoña, the Spanish term for the Siku, a traditional Andean panpipe.

Zampogna (UK: /zæmˈpɒnjə/,[1] US: /zæmˈpoʊnjə, (t)sɑːmˈ-/,[2] Italian: [dzamˈpoɲɲa]) is a generic term for a number of Italian double chantered bagpipes that can be found as far north as the southern part of the Marche, throughout areas in Abruzzo, Latium, Molise, Basilicata, Campania, Calabria, Apulia and Sicily. The tradition is now mostly associated with Christmas, and the most famous Italian carol, "Tu scendi dalle stelle" (You Come Down From the Stars) is derived from traditional zampogna music. However, there is an ongoing resurgence of the instrument in secular use seen with the increasing number of folk music festivals and folk music ensembles.
