意思
General term for playing wind instruments.
文化背景
Brass bands are a huge part of this UNESCO-recognized event. Thousands of people 'puhuvad pilli' simultaneously in a massive orchestra. In the 19th century, playing a wind instrument was a way for Estonian peasants to organize and express national pride. Ancient Estonians believed that blowing a wooden pipe could protect cattle from wolves. Estonia has a vibrant jazz scene where 'pilli puhumine' has moved from traditional brass to experimental saxophone and trumpet.

Even if you play the flute, just saying 'Ma puhun pilli' sounds very natural and humble in Estonian.
Grammar Alert
Always use the partitive case for the instrument. 'Puhun pill' is a very common beginner mistake.
