Here i'm using special one hand technique of playing on jew's harp. I use mini dan moi from Vietnam. This technique free up one of your hands so you can play on different instrument at the same time by other hand (in this case i play udu by the right hand).

Originally this technique was invented by me to save some extra time for practicing and to combine work in internet and practicing on jaw harp. So i do that pretty often when i working, but in that case instead of the udu i have mouse in my right hand:)

The time signature if this tune is 18/8 (7+7+4)

this jaw harp you can buy in our shop

Hybrid Kaval is an experimental instrument elaborated by my friend David Faulwasser. It's made with the idea of multi-style playing in mind. It is possible to use different playing positions on it: turkish (over the right side of the lips), persian (between upper front teeth,
khakassian khobrakh flute style (between upper 2nd and 3rd tooth), shakuhachi position.

The playing tube is interchangable: you can use 8-hole turkish kaval system or 9-hole armenian blul system.

It is chromatic and have the range of 3 octaves. Soon this instrument will available here for the order.

Here you can listen the playing in different styles:

changing three positions:

 

khakas khobrakh position

turkish kaval position

persian ney position
