This is
a pair of small Yuping xiao and dizi flutes. They are real instruments,
professionally tuned by Mr. Z.S.Liu.
The xiao
was developed by Mr. Z.S.Liu-- its finger holes are opened in a dizi's
way and it has a typical xiao's blow hole. So when it plays, it shows
the styles of both.

Finger holes are also in elliptic shape.
There are 6 finger holes in both flutes, this applies to all typical Yuping
xiao flutes.
