Talk:Bombard (musical instrument)

Cornish
Does the bombard carry the same name in Cornwall? I am leery about includine the two in the same article, as a shawm like instrument accompanying the bagpipe is commonplace all over Europe, in Brittany, Spain, Italy and Istria. They all have their local names and are sufficiently different that they should probably have seperate articles. Calum 21:56, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Range?
What is the sounding range of this instrument? Is it soprano? Alto? Tenor? Bass? What does it's written music look like? What clef does it use? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.95.43.249 (talk) 22:44, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Bombard (music) → Bombard (instrument) – To be WP:CONSISTENT with other instrument disambiguations, and because "(music)" actually fails to disambiguate (it could refer to a band, a song, a genre, etc., etc.)  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  12:08, 22 July 2023 (UTC) The discussion above is closed.

 * Support. It's a better disambiguator. Rreagan007 (talk) 21:29, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Support Bombard (musical instrument). Any device is an instrument, and that includes the bombard (weapon), which is an instrument of war. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:09, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
 * That works for me; consider the proposal changed. Now that I look closer, we are more often using the "(musical instrument)" than "(instrument)" disambiguator. Pinging to see if there's agreement.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  09:42, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
