It is not a piccolo. It's either a type of wood flute or recorder. I am leaning more towards a wood flute because recorders are not usually loud enough for an orchestra and I've never heard one of that tone color. However, the tone color is dark enough to be wood. It could also be an Irish whistle, which is basically a type of flute. I've heard a wood flute once, and it has the closest tone quality to the instrument played on that song. I'm sure if you really wanted to you could write the producer or orchestra to find out. Hope this helped some.
