Keening

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The old graveyard was filled with the sound of keening voices as mourners gathered to pay their respects.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.
