These small brass Jaw Harps are tuned to a melodious unit. Each of the lamellas has its own keynote on which you can play several overtones/harmonics.
Traditionally there are lots of complex melodies for the Kou Xian. But it is also something like a „polyphone pocket synthesizer” for the experimental musician and of course a must for every Jaw Harp maniac.
The sound dimensions will blow up all your expectations.
Look out! Addictive!
All sets come with a case.
These authentic Kou Xian (Hoho) Jaw Harps of the Yi people from Yunnan, China are handmade and traditionally not accurately tuned. If you are looking for cleanly tuned (standard pitch A 440Hz) Kou Xian Jaw Harps or for other intervals have a look at our tuned Vietnamese Kou Xian range.
