jaw harps of Sergey Litvinov can be called a model of balance of all qualities, including sound – and at a high level of each of them. The sound is smooth and clean, the timbre is saturated exactly to such an extent that it would be beautiful and allow you to clearly highlight overtones. The quality of fitting the reed to the frame and its material provide a very wide range and ease of melodic play. The mechanics of the reed also does not fail at the most critical moments, although a weak background appears when hitting from itself, which increases with an increase in the height of the setting. The maximum volume is very high, and it depends linearly on the amplitude of the stroke, i.e. There are no explosive surprises. It is convenient to hold the jaw harp due to its size and shape, on the teeth it also keeps smooth and confident - frame arms, not narrow and not wide, are tough enough that you do not close with excessive diligence. Each instrument is tuned, "small" sounds octave above "average".

Singing and easy-to-handle jaw harps that can easily become the main instrument.
