For centuries people living high in Ukraine's Carpathian Mountains used it to communicate over vast distances. The trembita is a long wooden horn that was played to mark special events and used by shepherds to send signals. Today the traditional Ukrainian instrument is enjoying a revival after being embraced by contemporary musicians. (RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service)
