The "Morning Mood" movement from Grieg's Peer Gynt suite begins with a solo by this instrument, which also represents Sasha, who quarrels with Sonya the duck in another work. It portrays a (*) bird in Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, and Tamino is given one of these instruments by the attendants of the Queen of the Night. The piccolo is a half-sized version of, for ten points, what reedless woodwind instrument, a magic one of which titles an opera by Mozart?
