I wish you people the best and hope you will develop your sapeh music and sapeh instruments further. Somehow, the sapeh has a very romantic and mystic twang to it. I'm chinese, and I'm in love with the sound of it.. the sapeh. Can you people also play to pop tunes? That would be very nice too!

That twang is very entrancing, isn't it? Especially when you have that continuous droning note carrying the sound.
