The ''arghul'' (), also spelled ''argul'', ''arghoul'', ''arghool'', ''argol'', or ''yarghul'' (Israel), is a traditional Egyptian and Palestinian musical instrument. It has been used since Ancient Egyptian times and is still used as a traditional instrument in Egypt and Palestine. ==Basic Characteristics== 600px ''Modern Egyptians''.) Modern Arghul, 3 ft. 2½ in. long.〔 〕 The arghul is a double-pipe, single-reed woodwind instrument that consists of two tubes: a melody pipe with between five and seven holes and a longer drone (Arabic ''ardiyya'', "ground") pipe. Its tone is similar to that of a clarinet, although a bit more reed like. Unlike the similar mijwiz, the arghul only has fingering holes on one of the instrument's pipes (the melody pipe), and the drone pipe has a detachable length that allows the player to alter the pitch of the drone. In the illustration above all three lengths are shown in use. An arghoul belonging to the collection of the Conservatoire Royal at Brussels, described by Victor Mahillon in his catalogue〔 cites: ''Catalogue descriptif et analytique du musée du Conservatoire'' ''Royal de Bruxelles'' (Ghent, 1880), p. 141. 〕 (No. 113), gives the following scale: — Arghuls are in Egypt and other Arab nations as an accompaniment to belly dancing and other types of Arabic musical performances. Circular breathing is an important part of the playing of the instrument. There are three varieties of arghuls: The small arghul (''arghoul alasghar''), the medium arghul (''arghoul alsoghayr''), and the large arghul (''arghoul alkebir''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arghul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
