The bombard, a compact wind instrument known for its double-reed design, bears resemblance to a soprano shawm in terms of its range, although it is shorter in length. Its pitch falls in the key of A, slightly smaller than a soprano recorder in the key of C. Bombards continue to find their place in various Celtic music traditions. This particular instrument exhibits a brass nickel-plated key and an imitation ivory sole, as shown in the accompanying image. Its distinctive characteristic lies in its piercing and high-pitched tone.
