Think about it more... the jaw harp [jew's harp] doesn't really require any airflow at all to be played. And, for that matter, both the Sheng [and similar instruments of Asian origins] as well as the harmonica [and some models, in particular, such as the bass,] can be played with only one breath flow direction, as required or desired.
