Khomus "Mosquito" in a Boot-Shaped Case
Archived model (?)
|
Unlike the Tuvan brother, called the Shaman's Grunting, the case of this jaw harp, painted with a marker, looks more like a product of a circle of children's creativity than a repository for a musical instrument or a shamanic vehicle. Already familiar with the appearance of the "grunting" after such a description of one cover "Mosquito" may not be interested in the continuation. In this case, it is much more interesting.
Inside there is the same miniature small jaw harp, but immediately pleases the presence of a large ring on the reed and the convenience of holding the instrument, which lies entirely on the pad of the thumb. Medium stiff reed, elastic. The sound is soft, smoothed, rich in overtones and surprisingly dynamic; best controlled by articulation and small but fast portions of air. Both slow and fast play is convenient.
You can easily recommend it for the collection, or if you like it.
