Code: 036187 Drumble - Jew's Harps
The NCAS (DAN MOI) Jaw Harp tuned in C2 is very delicately handcrafted. It's incredibly easy to play. The sound is rich in overtones and the price is excellent.
It catches your attention with its easy playability, brilliant sound rich in overtones, and its price. It comes in a round bamboo case. We sell it in various tunings.
You can play the NCAS jaw harp slowly or quickly - dynamically. Its sound resembles electronic music or analogue synthesizers. You can improvise thrillingly, play touching melodies and relaxing sounds.
All of this is made possible by this small Vietnamese jaw harp.
It's our favorite pocket-sized instrument.
By the way: ncas (pronounced "ncha"), as the H'mong call their jaw harp, is traditionally made of brass in northern Vietnam. Among the H'mong, both men and women play this small instrument, which is used for festivities, relaxation, and courting. With ncas melodies, whole stories can be told and emotions particularly well set to music. Lovers make first contact using dan moi, revealing their feelings, introducing themselves and their families, "talking" about their desires and teasing each other in long musical dialogues. It's fascinating how such a small instrument has such a wide range of sounds!
