The picco pipe is the smallest form of ducted-flue tabor pipe or flute-a-bec. It is 3½" long, with the windway taking up 1½". It has only three holes: two in front and a dorsal thumb hole. It has the same mouthpiece as a recorder. The bore end hole of the picco pipe has a small flare, and the lowest notes were played with a finger blocking this end. The range is from b to c3, using the slight frequency shift between registers to sound a full chromatic scale, like the tabor pipe.〔(Library of Congress: Dayton C. Miller Flute Collection )〕 It was popularized in 1856 at Covent Garden in London by a 25-year-old blind Sardinian player.〔George Grove, "Picco", ''A Dictionary of Music and Musicians (A.D. 1450–1880), by Eminent Writers, English and Foreign'', vol. 2, edited by George Grove, D.
