The cultural importance of the bamboo flute

The bamboo flute is one of the oldest instruments in the world, and has been attached to the cultural and spiritual life of the Vietnamese for centuries. They have been used to accompany theatre performances and have also played an important role in religious ceremonies and festivals.
