Answer 2

Answer:

Pungi became the generic name for reeded noisemakers. A barber of a family of professional musicians decided to improve the tonal quality of the pungi. He chose a pipe with natural hollow stem that was longer and broader than the pungi, and made seven holes on the body of the pipe. When he played on it,soft and melodious sounds were produced.
