Keening

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

The keening stench of decay emanated from the garbage dumpster, making it difficult to pass by.

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

The singer's voice soared in a beautiful keening note, captivating the audience.

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.
