The Hirtenschalmei (or shepherd's shawm) is a double reeded woodwind instrument, with a cylindrical bore and a flared bell, reconstructed based off iconographic sources in the late 20th century. The instrument is described as producing a "buzzy" sound. The Hirtenschalmei tends to be quieter than a shawm. The double reed in the instrument is capped. The instrument is often mentioned in medieval french literature and art, depicted as being played by rustic figures. Wikimedia Commons has media related to Hirtenschalmei. rdf:langString

All instances of the instruments today are reconstructed based off an instrument found on the wreck of the Mary Rose, during salvage operations in the 1980s. However, this instrument could also have been dulzaina. Today, reconstructions are made in soprano, tenor and alto sizes. Wikimedia Commons has media related to Hirtenschalmei.
