Keening

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

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The keening aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the bakery.

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

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