what are these horns called?? they sound soo beautiful

[OuLuYang]

I believe they're called Dungchen. They do sound beautfiful! They really fill the air around them with sound, standing near one feels like standing near a big subwoofer. Plus, it carries over long distances, just like the long horns they use in the Alps.

you should hear them live, they move one to tears.
