Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

The keening voices of the choir conveyed the deep sorrow of the funeral service.

The old man sat by the grave, keening softly for his departed wife.

The haunting sound of keening filled the air as the people paid their respects to the fallen soldiers.

The somber, keening notes of the bagpipes filled the air at the memorial service, evoking a sense of solemnity and remembrance.

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.
