fluier
The fluier (; [ˈflu.jer]) is a traditional Romanian wind instrument, a type of shepherd's flute, common throughout the entire Romanian cultural area. It is an instrument with ancient Romanian roots, used predominantly in solo performance. In traditional culture, the fluier is primarily associated with the image of the solitary shepherd, for whom it serves as a means of self-expression and an accompaniment to daily life. The instrument's name is presumed to originate from the – "to blow".
