jew's harp tune by aron szilagyi

[navrangmusic]

In British English the name of this instrument is Jew's harp (old English name is trump). In the States it is also called jaw harp or mouth harp (not mouth's harp). As far as I know Jewish people traded this instrument in the 11-12th century in England, thats why English believed it was a Jewish harp. But Jew's harp has no tradition in Jewish music culture.

For me linguistic aspects are way less important than the meaning behind the words: this great musical instrument, call it whatever...

[Microglia1]

Can people stop using the word "Jew's harp" ? These instruments are native to many parts of the world. The "mouth's harp" with the nationality attached to it is more accurate.

[FallenAngel2737]

dude if thats a jew's harp then thats like jewish techno awesome thats cool how do you make one of those?

[archersniper11]

Hát ez kegyetlen jó! Csak gratulálni tudok Áron! ;)

[pagini86]

this is a romanian song about goat :))

Ta, ta, ta, caprita, ta,

Te-am adus din Africa,

Te-am adus cu avionu

Te-am hranit cu biberonu.

[navrangmusic]

@pagini86

actually the Hungarian minority, the "Csango" people in Moldva, Romania know this song as "Kecskés" or goat dance. So that region is a big melting pot of cultures: Romanians, Hungarians, Gypsies, Jewish - Thats why we like their music so much... Same melodies in different cultures.

theres a sound you made that ive only heard a few others make and have wanted to now for the longest time how to do it. you only did it a few times in this video. It sounds like your rolling your tongue or something. its rapid fire like a machine gun. Is that sound only possible on super high end harps? i can only get a hold pretty low quality. my first was one of those damn snoopys. utter crap.

[dzsumbicsaj]

olyan, mintha csak magad felé pengetnéd az elején: Jól látom? És az a hang 0:29-nél megfejthetetlen... Vajon hogy csinálod?! Gratulálok!

[archersniper11]

@dzsumbicsaj Csak egyszerűen egy rövid "trrrrrrr" hangot perget le a nyelvévél 2 pengetés között! ;)

[unhidden]

Im very tempted to get one !

[TERRORcop]

wow! AMAZING!!!!!!

[evothereal]

nekem is tetszett ez a hangszer, úgyhogy karácsonyra egy dorombot kértem, és nagyon tetszik, élőbe teljesen más, és ami a legjobb, hogy egyszerű használni és szinte bármit el lehet vele játszani! ajánlom mindenkinek =)

a videóra meg ment az öt csillag

[Valerius8]

arra viszont én is kíváncsi lennék, hogy azt a berregést hogy csinálod, pl 0:28-nál.. hogy.. hogy? :D

[DanielRock]

egyszerűen, berregteti a nyelvét :D

[evothereal]

szerintem az az mikor nagyon gyorsan mozgatja ki-be a levegőt, legalábbis én így tudom, de magamtól jöttem rá, nem nagyon ismerem igazából a technikákat, hanem én felfedezgetem, és aztán megpróbálom összekomponálni :D

[blessumkevin]

hahaha what a jew

[nEUNVOLT]

Ilyet fogok kérni névnapomra!!! Láttam a többi videódat is!

[2hajnaledit2]

Hihetetlen!Ez a "ZENE" 2 percben! Gratulálok!Sohasem hallottam még senkit így zenélni ezen a hangszeren!

Minden elismerésem.(Tisztelettel: Egy "mindenevő" zenész)

[BarnaOgre]

Azt a hangot hogy csinálod az elején?Nem is pengeted közben XD.

[Valerius8]

beledúdol

[theweirdofamily23]

[krampampulcsi]

[dumdork55]

so, Im planning on getting one of your dad's jew harps fro christmas, out of black fire ones, do the low ones or regular ones sound better?

[navrangmusic]

low ones, cheers

[dumdork55]

thanks

[Giardintek]

@dumdork55 - I have a medium one, Looks like Aaron's, but a lill larger, It sounds great, I got mine in Hungary, Europe. Also have a low one from a while back, but almost never play it, unless I really need a specific sound.

[lotm]

hi i am from Chile

here the mapuche culture plays jews harp but are diferent shape

before the spanish came here the mapuches build it with a tree call Trompe, so we call the jews harp trompe

you are a great player man

where is from that jews harp??

[navrangmusic]

hi, can you send a picture of those instruments to aron-at-doromb-dot-com. im really interested. im using JH's made by my father, Zoltan Szilagyi.

[BarnaOgre]

It´s hungarian,or at least I think it´s hungarian,unless he bought it from abroad.

Nincs igazam?

[carlu96]

This vid made me sOOoOoOo wet LOL

hey look at my profile ES

[xanos4225]

how is he making sounds at the very beginning without plucking the arm? I've seen people do this, but I can't figure it out.

[Alejan2]

I am pretty sure that certain jews harps are made with very little clearance between the blade and the frame.  This is so that the player merely needs to breathe in or out forcing the blade to move to allow air though.

[deathdying]

and this is how techno was born!!

[Superman8137]

Can I buy a Jew's harp like this on Internet???

[S4tchm0]

Yes, you can, from Amazon or from some Hungarian site, but I think the first is much easier :)

[Superman8137]

Thanks a lot!

[DimonHelI]

Aron is awesome like as always.

Which doromb you play here?It's sound like your Balcan Devil track,but there written Black Fire...But anyway cool.

About tooth.Playing with vargan,khomus or doromb you CAN'T harm your health,your teeth will be OK thanks to really usefull vibes.You can only hurt your lips.When i play fast music on my vargans or dorombs,some times i hurt my lips,but it's not deadly wounds.)))

[traziciavulfia]

Ez igen!

Ilyen emberek miért nincsenek a TV-ben??

[naaaaaagz]

minden elismerésem :)

[frazier36]

Can you play this instrument for years without doing severe damage to your teeth?? I sure hope so cause your video makes me wanna buy one, and learn to kick ass on it... that was great, nice playing man.

[stratoka]

hmm.. mondjuk azt hogy alapoktol kezdem! tehat teljesen amator vagyok..igy a legkonnyebb szerintem! :)

[stratoka]

hello, elkell ismernem ugyes vagy :D nemtudnal adni nekem egyket tippet hogyan fejleszthetnem magamat? classic dorombom van! koszi eloreis, udv

[navrangmusic]

kerdes, hogy milyen szintrol tortenjen a fejlestes? tippet tudnek adni, csak tudni kell, hogy mihez.

[navrangmusic]

nem mindegyiknel. vannak olyan dorombtipusok, amik csak befele pengetve szolnak jol, vannak olyanok, amik csak kifele. ra kell erezni, mi az amit szeret a hangszer..

[hunyadvary]

Ha jól veszem ki befele és kifele is pengeti a dongót. Mindegyik fajtánál lehet az ilyet?

[Sardanza]

Dude, that's smokin'! I love the little didge sounding growl. Very cool. I better go practice now.

[diaton]
