Kaval is a traditional wooden wind instrument commonly found in the Balkans and parts of the Middle East. It is typically made from a single piece of wood, often around 1 to 1.5 meters long, and has a simple design with a flared end. The player produces sound by blowing into one end while covering and uncovering finger holes along the body to create different pitches. The Kaval is known for its rich, melodic sound and is often used in folk music, celebrations, and cultural events. It is played solo or as part of an ensemble, contributing to the unique musical heritage of regions where it is popular.
