Long before the Spaniards brought the string instruments, there were wind and percussion instruments. For wind instruments there are quena, pan pipe, and bombo. The quena is a wooden flute with 6 holes in the front and 1 in the back. The pan pipe is a wind instrument with 15 diffrent sized wooden pipes. The player blows the pipes and a note is made. The bombo is a drum but the end is covered with llama hide.
