Information
has gloss	(noun) an ancient (now obsolete) single-reed woodwind; usually made of bone pibgorn, stockhorn, hornpipe
has gloss	eng: The pibgorn is a Welsh species of idioglot reed aerophone. The name traslates literally as "pipe-horn". It is also historically known as "Cornicyll". It utilises a single-reed, cut from Elder (Sambucus nigra) or Reed (Arundo fragmites), like that found in the drone of a Bagpipe, being the ancestor of the modern clarinet reed. The single chambered body has six small finger-holes and a thumb-hole giving a diatonic compass of an octave. The body of the instrument is traditionally carved from a single piece of wood or bone. Playable, extant historical examples in the Museum of Welsh Life have bodies cut and shaped of Elder. Another, unplayable instrument at the museum, possibly of a later date, is made from the leg bone of an unspecified ungulate. Contemporary instruments are turned and bored from a variety of fruitwoods, or exotic hardwoods; or turned from, or moulded in plastics. The reed is protected by a reedcap or stock of cow-horn. The bell is shaped from a section of cow-horn which serves to amplify the sound. The pibgorn may be attached to a bag or played directly with the mouth.
