Diaulos (instrument)

The diaulos was an ancient Greece wind instrument composed of two pipes (aulos), which were played similar to an oboe. The diaulos is basically two flutes put together[1] The two pipes were connected at their base and often of different lengths. Circular breathing was sometimes used by the performer.[2]
