Zurna
Zurna is a Turkish folk instrument of the wind type. Because of its strong sound it is generally played in outdoor places, on occasions such as village weddings, sending off the boys to military service, sport encounters, folk dances and similar ceremonial events. It was the first melody instrument of the Mehter Band (Janissaries Band) in the Ottoman period. It was also used in some traditional theater performances. It is generally accompanied with a drum.
