This sound is being made by blowing into a miniature glass jug. The
sound is  something like a South American flute. I need to know what
musical note it is producing. If you have any other data that would be
helpful to know too.

Hi boleynma~

It is an interesting, ?old world? sound. If you had not told me it was
produced with a jug, I would have thought it some sort of primitive
flute, etc.

The note is B flat above middle C. After the first take, the sound
starts at B flat, and slides down to a G.

Using a metronome count of 100, the first note is a half note; the
second, a dotted full; the third, a whole note; the fourth, a dotted
full.

Regards,
Kristina

Thank-you! The glass jug was given to my great-grandmother on the
occasion of my grandmother's birth by a woman who was one of the
"help" (a former slave   or daughter of a former slave) living on
their farm in Texas in 1888. I just purchased a CD of primitive flute
music and happened to think that the jug might produce a sound -- and
voila, it did. It was the first time for the sound to be produced from
the jug in 100 years. Thanks for your speedy help.
