Algoze is a pair of Punjabi woodwind
musical instruments that is adopted by Sindhi Rajasthani and Baloch folk
musicians. The musical instrument is also called Jorhi, Do Nally or Ngoze. The
musical instrument is analogous to a pair of wooden flutes. The player of the
instrument plays it by using three fingers on each side of the instrument. The
sound of the instrument is produced by breathing into the instrument rapidly;
the fast recapturing of breath on each beat manufactured a bouncing and swing
rhythm.

Generally, the algoze is used as a
folk musical instrument and Punjabi folk musicians use the musical instrument
to play traditional music like Jind Mahi, Mirza and Jugni. The musical instrument
is also a popular choice among the United Kingdom musicians for making modern
day Bhangra music and figures as a crucial musical instrument in Rajasthani and
Baloch folk music. The most popular players of this musical instrument are the
Sindhi musicians (Late) Ustad Khamisu Khan, (Late) Ustad Misri Khan Jamali as
well as Akbar Khamisu Khan (Khamisu Khan's son). Gurmeet Bawa (from Punjab) is yet another major player of the musical
instrument that used the instrument in her songs.
