The instrument is called fujara(btw unfortunate name from Polish point of view)
Traditionally, the fujara was played by shepherds for recreation. Today, the fujara has moved from the shepherds' fields to the stage of folk festivals in the Slovak towns of Východná and Detva.
Anyway, it is built from 3 elements the biggest part has 3 holes in the lower part.
Usually it's quite long(up to 2 meters) instrument so players need to stand
Since 2008 it's also proclaimed in the UNESCO list of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2005."The Fujara and its Music" was inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008 by UNESCO.
And here is example of music played only on a few fujaras
