Fadno is a reed instrument and domestic flute of the Sami people of Scandinavia, made from Angelica archangelica.^{[citation needed]} The instrument features a reed and three to six (generally four) fingerholes^[1] and appears to have no parallels among the surrounding Scandinavian peoples.^[2]

Characteristics

The instrument is made from a 15–30 cm length of the angelica plant (fadno, the term for one-year-old angelica), from which the instrument derives its name.^[3] The instrument's reed categorized as an "idioglottic concussion reed",^[4] meaning the reed is fashioned from the tube itself.^[5] Fadnos were played with Sami drums together with joik.
