Khlui

Khlui

The "khlui" (ขลุ่ย) is a vertical duct flute from Thailand. It is generally made of bamboo, though instruments are also made from hardwood or plastic. The "khlui" is very similar to the Cambodian "khloy", though there are differences in tuning between the two instruments.

It comes in three sizes: "khlui lib" (ขลุ่ยหลิบ; small), "khlui phiang aw" (ขลุ่ยเพียงออ; medium), and "khlui u" (ขลุ่ยอู้; large).

The "khlui" once had a buzzing membrane similar to the Chinese "di mo", but this is not used today.
