Ran across this today... The "Sheng". Amazing, multi-piped instrument, with multiple reeds, as I understand it. The same pitches are produced on exhale or inhale, so constant tone can be made. Also, it is designed to be polyphonic. Really an amazing "lost" instrument. Maybe less "lost" to some Asian cultures, but certainly delightfully surprising to me!
