A zampogna is a generic term for a number
of Italian double chantered pipes that can be found as
far north as the southern part of the Marche, throughout
areas in Abruzzo, Latium, Molise, Basilicata, Campania, Calabria,

festivals and Christmas, and the most famous Italian carol,
'Tu scendi dalle stelle' (You Come Down From the Stars)
is derived from traditional zampogna music.
