Etymology

From Latin symphōnia (possibly influenced, through folk etymology, by zampa (“paw, leg of an animal”) in Italian, as bagpipes are traditionally made of leather with the hair still on), from Ancient Greek συμφωνία (sumphōnía). Cf. also Romanian cimpoi, cimpoaie, Portuguese sanfonha. Doublet of sinfonia.
