Pukuy is made from bamboo reed with thirteen fully closed pipes, giving it a deeper, more resonant voice than open-ended or tunable flutes. Tuned in E minor, its tone is smooth and rounded, with notes that carry longer and sit lower in the breath. In Quechua, Pukuy means to blow softly, a name that reflects the way this flute favors steady, unforced melodies. Its sound is clear but subdued, suited for music that holds warmth without excess.
