Also Schreierpfeife. Pl. schreierpfeifen.
[G., lit. ‘screamer pipe’.]
A musical instrument of the variety collectively known as schryari.
1939[see schryari]. 1957A. C. Baines Woodwind Instr. & their Hist. x. 258 Several German inventories..mention a consort of Schreierpfeifen or Schryari (‘crying’ or ‘screaming’ pipes..). These do not seem to occur in any known account of a musical performance, but Praetorius says that they could be used either alone or with other instruments. 1976D. Munrow Instr. Middle Ages & Renaissance 51/1 The origin of the name Schreierpfeife (Italian schryari) is unclear: perhaps it had something to do with the instrument's ‘screaming’ tone quality. |
