Valentinas Krulikovskis and Viaceslavas Lukjanovas are graduates of the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theater. These two movie and theater actors currently work in Russian Drama Theater of Vilnius. Despite many roles they are acting, artists have a small, but really serious passion. It's jew's harp. Valentinas and Viaceslavas discovered this unique musical instrument two years ago and now their lives are unimaginable without it. This summer they presented their first experimental theatrical performance. It was an act where the sound of Jew's harps overlaps with futuristic oeuvre of Russian poet Velimir Chlebnikov.

You have it backwards. Darude Sandstorm is the modern technology version the jaw harp influenced the sounds and rhythmic foundations for. All new things in music wouldn't exist without simple ancient roots.

In our culture, the Hmongs, this instrument was used during courtship with girls. Back in the mountains of Laos, houses were made of straw. If there was a girl you were interested in and knew her house, you'd go sit outside her by her room during the late night and use the jews harp to communicate with them. However, the way that we used them, we don't flick it in a technobeat like they do. You can actually speak with it by talking while its in our mouth but not using your vocal cords. They would do this and recite poetry to gain the girls attention. When the girl notices, they can whisper to each other through the walls afterwards.

my mother bought me one as a going away present when I joined the army, I used to play it in the tank whilst waiting for the rangers to clear, and ya with the didgeridoo it sounds amazing. I have also played it tripping out on mushrooms in some of the old prehistoric burial cairns in Scotland, a life changing experience! It sets up a perfect resonance, that I'm sure is not a coincidence. I have had many wonderful times with the jaws harp, and will play it until I move on.

Ahh me...this takes me back to my childhood back in the mid fifties. It seemed like half the boys at school had a Jaws Harp in their pocket. Indeed our form teachers desk draw was probably half full of those that had been confiscated as a result of someone daring to sound one off in class...at least three were mine. But they were cheap enough to replace. Back then I think they cost about one shilling and sixpence pre -decimal UK money. I recall that one of the favorite songs they were used to accompany was an old Western song called The Runaway Train. Happy days!

Hyperventilation commonly results from long or loud playing with a stiff instrument that relies upon heavy, exagerrated breathing to generate a forced sustain. On the other hand useful sustain can be created using a lighter instrument where a controlled pattern in a natural unforced pattern of cyclic breathing may suffice. In a shamanistic context continuing hyperventilation is likely be seen as a necessary part of the experience, generating light headedness, dizziness and a high with visual effects.

It is important to know the correct tones to be played while sitting and going through each hand position from root to crown following the right musical steps and emotions. It also helps to use a crystal prism to spread a rainbow on your wall to look at for a real natural reference to the perception of colour. This applies more toward tantric yoga or buddhism than traditional Hinduism, or even aspects of Zarathustra in some cases.

Fantastic performance. In Malaysia,Sarawak we called it 'Ruding' . The Iban term for the instrument. Look like Jaw Harp is an international instrument. please provide as with the design of Jaw Harp so that we make it ourself.

I grew up in the piedmont of North Carolina with a musician dad who played old time fiddle music. I learned how to play a jaw harp at very young age. Great party trick when your friends can play string instruments. Not very handy when trying to get a girlfriend.

That was fantastic. I had a mouth harp in the 70's when I was a kid. I played it so much the spring broke. I cried but my Dad laughed because I drove him crazy playing with it all the time. I'm going online now to buy one and play it over his grave. HA!

@@shisuiuchiha8596 ..At least Jeremy knows the correct name for this great little instrument..I have had mine since the mid 1960's..when it was used a lot on Country and Western music...so Jeremy is right in his thoughts straying to that type of music as in the Dollars trilogy!..When I was about ten years old,my Mother used to tell me stories about her family,how her Father had a Stradivarios violin,Uncle used to play the spoons,another Uncle played the Knackerbones,and another one played the Jaws Harp,only my Mother referred to it as a "Jews Harp",which was a common misnomer for it in those days...I was ten years old in 1954,and my Mother was referring to her family around the years 1920-on.. So this Harp isn't a new thing,it's ancient!..and very difficult to play..it's the feeling of Metal on your teeth..a virtual Electrolyte...like Aluminium foil touching your teeth...but you get used to it after a while! C n W music isn't music if there isn't a Jaws Harp twanging away...also think American Trucker's music!!

The reason why I'm here is because I just received my two "kubing" (bamboo Jew's Harp) in the mail from Mindanao, Philippines, and I needed some pointers. I've always recognized the magical sounds a Jew's harp could produce, so when I found some for sale online, I got two.

It makes me appreciate the diversity of people and great minds all around the world and the music through time. Thank for bringing it back to the modern day. And you two have great sense of humor, which made the talk so entertaining while remained educative.

There were parts in the last piece that reminded me of Orthodox Christian church-bell ringing, and other parts that felt like modern dance music... I loved it! Very entertaining and informative talk; it had never occurred to me that instruments with "free reeds" (harmonica, accordion, melodian, etc) evolved from the jews harp.
