You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
The hulusi is a traditional Chinese gourd flute originating from the southwestern province of Yunnan and remains one of the most popular folk wind instruments. This piece is handcrafted from natural gourd adorned with painted ornamentation and complemented by three pipes made of black bamboo. The instrument is tuned in the key of C and produces a soft, round, and slightly nasal sound, suitable for calm melodies, folk songs, and relaxing play. Due to its simple fingering and natural breath control, the hulusi is an ideal choice for beginners seeking their first wind instrument with a unique sound. However, it is also appreciated by more experienced musicians and collectors of ethnic instruments.
The body of the instrument consists of a dried gourd, which serves as an air chamber. The main melodic pipe is fitted into it, featuring six finger holes on the front and one hole on the back. On the sides are two auxiliary pipes, which can sound as a drone tone, or can be muted with the included stopper. The sound is created by the vibration of a metal reed made of alloy, which is hidden inside the gourd and gives the instrument a clear and velvety tone. The mouthpiece is designed to mimic buffalo horn and is comfortably shaped at the end of the gourd for the lips.

Store the hulusi in the supplied case, which protects it from impacts and dust. After playing, allow the instrument to dry freely to prevent moisture from the breath reaching the reed, and do not expose it to direct sunlight or sudden temperature changes. Both the gourd and bamboo are natural materials, so each piece may slightly vary in pattern and shade. The red Chinese knot with tassel hangs from the hole at the end of the melodic pipe, giving the instrument its characteristic appearance.
Handcrafted hulusi in the key of C combines traditional Chinese craftsmanship with easy handling, allowing for quick learning of initial songs. The combination of natural gourd and black bamboo ensures a pleasant and warm sound. With a length of approximately 39 cm, the instrument is comfortably held in the hands and easily portable. The package includes a carrying case, so you can safely take the instrument with you to rehearsals, trips, or music school. It makes a lovely gift for music lovers, travellers, and anyone interested in Asian culture.
