Kubyz Zagretdinov with a resonator
Archived model (?)
|
This alien pear belongs to the category of exotic jaw harps. Made by experimentalist Robert Zagretdinov on the basis of traditional Bashkir kubyz, it consists, in fact, of the jaw harp itself and a thick-walled hollow wooden resonator. This design adds to the volume of sound, but due to the not the highest colorfulness of the base model, you can find a more interesting instrument. Although the uniqueness of the sound of the pear cannot be taken away. In addition, there is a new playing technique - the corner of the lips can direct part of the air into the body of the resonator, changing the nature of the sound.
