Foreword: this won’t let me post links so I’ll try my best to direct you to sources.

The instrument is called a firca.

Source: look up this word and it should lead to a wiki with a little piece on it.

The actual instrument used to represent its sound is an “eighteenth-century double-flageolet”.

Source: the-music-of-the-dark-crystal/ is the end of the link you will want to look for. It is a website exactly named after the movie.

You can find a very similar sounding but different looking instrument called an inline double ocarina, an exclusive speciality of Charlie Hind. He has gone into “semi-retirement” as of December 2019 but may take orders still.

Source: visit the hindocarina website and search for the inline double tenor ocarina in F. That is the one with the close resemblance. Read below to reference this instrument further.

Be sure to check out Priscilla Hernandez’s YouTube channel for some fantastic music, and some special tributes to The Dark Crystal, including Jen’s Song. If you go to her playlists, you’ll see one called, “The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and other Jim Henson works”. The two called “Gelfing Song” and “Jen play his pipes” feature Priscilla playing the ocarina mentioned above. If you look up Jen’s Song double ocarina on YouTube, you’ll find it’s a popular instrument for performing this song, and some include tabs.
