You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
The hulusi is a traditional Chinese gourd flute, which is one of the typical instruments of Chinese folk music. This instrument is tuned in the key of C, making it suitable for beginners as well as for playing alongside other instruments. The body is made of aluminium with a copper coating, which mimics the appearance of a classic dried gourd and gives the instrument a noble look. The sound of the instrument is pure and gentle, making it suitable for calm melodies as well as for accompanying singing. The hulusi thus represents an accessible way to try playing an exotic wind instrument from the far East.
The instrument has three pipes that emerge from a common air chamber shaped like a gourd. The middle melodic pipe has six finger holes, through which individual notes of the melody are created. The two outer pipes usually serve as drones, sounding a constant tone beneath the melody and creating a typical full sound reminiscent of bagpipes. Playing the hulusi is therefore interesting even for players who already master the recorder or another simple wind instrument and wish to expand their repertoire with a new colourful sound.

The instrument is played by blowing into the mouthpiece at the top of the gourd and gradually covering the finger holes with the fingers of both hands. To start, it is sufficient to learn a calm and steady airflow; the rest will come with regular and patient daily practice. After each playing session, it is advisable to wipe the instrument with a dry cloth and allow it to air dry freely to prevent moisture from accumulating inside from the breath. When not in use, store it in the included case, which protects the surface from scratches and facilitates transport to rehearsals, trips, or performances.
The hulusi gourd flute in C tuning combines a traditional shape with a practical metal design. Thanks to the three pipes and the melody accompanied by drones, it sounds full even with the first simple pieces. The dimension of 44 x 9 x 9 cm makes the instrument a portable companion that fits into a backpack along with the case. The decorative Chinese knot highlights the instrument's origin and is suitable if you wish to gift the hulusi to someone. The instrument will be appreciated by lovers of ethnic music, novice musicians, and collectors of unusual musical instruments from around the world.
