Keening

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

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

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

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

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

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