‖ schryari, n., chiefly collect.|ʃrɪˈɑːrɪ|
[Of uncertain origin (see note below).]
A variety of wooden double-reed wind instrument used in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and recently revived for the playing of early music.

Marcuse Mus. Instr. 463/1 Schryari were made in consorts of soprano, alto/tenor, and bass; they had conical tubes with double reed protected by a reed cap, 7 front fingerholes, and 2 rear thumbholes. 1976D. Munrow Instr. Middle Ages & Renaissance 52/2 The most surprising feature however is that the exterior of the schryari is conical. |
