DAN MOI World Music Instruments

"These instruments are time machines," says musician Steev Kindwald, and refers to the Indian double flute Alghoza. Kindwald has been studying the Alghoza in Rajasthan for 20 years – playing the Alghoza is the first thing you do when you wake up and it is the last thing before you go to bed. It is much more than just practising: playing Alghoza is a state of being, a way of life, an artistic expression and a recourse to the musical creations of earlier generations. Steev Kindwald is also a virtuoso Jaw harp player not only on the Morchang, but especially on Asian plucked Jaw harps. Kindwald further is making flutes and jaw harps. Many of his instruments are documented on Kindwald's Facebook page. Find some of his instruments in the Dan Moi Shop: https://bit.ly/3fzcgWt A radio portrait in German language about the music and work of Steev Kindwald will be broadcasted this Sunday evening on BR Klassik. The programme by Helen Hahmann reports on Kindwald's extensive oeuvre. Next to music by Kindwald, previously unpublished sound documents from the musician's archive can be heard. The broadcast will be available online for 7 days next week. https://bit.ly/2R0zjzL

Chang Qobyz Sirka Magnificent Jaw Harp from Uzbekistan Beautiful handicraft from Uzbekistan! The milled frame is discreetly decorated with flower tendrils or stars. This makes the look of this Jaw Harp almost playful. The Chang Qobyz Sirka convinces not only by its simple beauty, but also by its fantastic sound. It plays acoustically in the upper league. The deep sound is wonderfully modulable and especially sonorous. It responds very well to the modulation variations and produces a wide carpet of sound, which gives a lot of pleasure. Although it can be played percussively, it unfolds its sound potential outstandingly with slow melodic strokes. It is mainly suitable for more experienced performers, as the Chang Qobyz Sirka needs an accurate playing style to fully exploit its quality. In addition, it can be held perfectly in the hand by its well-made large frame.   https://bit.ly/3cAHtFH #maultrommel, #jewsharp, #khomus, #homus, #хомус, #хомуз, #комуз, #kubys, , #drymba, #варган, #doromb, #доромб, #vargan, #jewsharp, #jewharp, #guimbarde, #murchunga, #morsing, #danmoi, #morchang, #scacciapensieri, #marranzano, #uzbekistan, #worldmusic, #harmonious, #sound in #balance, #windinstrument, #Eveninglight, #musicinstrument https://www.instagram.com/p/CMcsrskB1mL/?igshid=hbfoagv87q2n

Susap Sepik, a precious Fusion Jaw Harp from Steev Kindwald   The Susap Sepik is an artistically designed jaw harp in Papua style, made by Steev Kindwald and elaborately decorated with a fine soldering iron (pyrograph). This not only underlines the unique character of this Susap, but also hardens the bamboo. The bamboo, which has been dried for at least ten years, comes from France. In addition, Steev has attached a decorated bamboo ring to the end of the string, which makes plucking easier. The Susap, which is one of New Guinea's traditional musical instruments, is played by numerous ethnic groups in Papua when they court a bride. By playing on the Susap, the man can court the beloved with a certain distance and tell her musically what feelings he has for her. In the case of a possible rejection, the musical abilities or the instrument itself can be blamed. In this way an embarrassing situation is avoided and the necessary interaction in the mostly small groups is not affected. The playing technique of the Susap is very special as it is plucked towards the face and needs some practice. The narrow end of the reed is placed on the slightly open lips, while the string is used to pluck towards the nose. The mouth serves as a resonator and by modulating the air through the opening of the mouth, the movement of the tongue or the larynx the tones can be changed. If the technique is mastered, the plucking and the percussive sound are a great pleasure. https://bit.ly/3qJpsu3   #maultrommel, #jewsharp, #susap, #drymba, #варган, #doromb, #vargan, #jewsharp, #jewharp, #guimbarde, #murchunga, #morsing, #danmoi, #morchang, #scacciapensieri, #marranzano, #koykin, #jewsharp_player, #weltmusik, #worldmusic, #musicinstrument, #sound, #harmonious, #percussive, #bamboo, #windinstrument, #jawharp, #maultrommel, #pyrography, #papua #music https://www.instagram.com/p/CMXlvCdhQNV/?igshid=1xhpqvs8bvo6e
