mouthpieces are commonly found on end-blown
woodwind instruments such as the
tin whistle and the
recorder. They use a narrow windway and a blade-like edge to channel and vibrate air blown into them. The term fipple properly refers to the block, typically of wood, that forms the floor of the windway.A fipple flute (also called duct flute), in other words, is simply a
flute that is played from the top instead of the side.
