Peng wanted to learn Chapei since he was young. An injury from the Lon Nol war left him unable to walk, but gave him the opportunity to learn. Now he pretty well know Chapei player in Cambodia and teaching many students to carry on this tradition.

  • Thumbs up !!!

  • It is very honor that he is a living treasure of our khmer heritage. If nobody love and embrace our traditional's music culture, everything he knew and had experiences will be gone in a near future. Chapei is our traditional's music instrument. Thai has it also, but they moderniizes a little bit. They call Pin Guitar. If our young's generation who has an idea to modernize, it is tremmendous benefit to our culture. It is very honor to hear his voice.

  • Thank you. A real privilege to hear this song and to learn the existence of the ancient Chapei. May it thrive for a long long time in peace.

  • Wow ! I really like his song.
