  • ua tsaug nawb ntshiabliaj....

  • neejyag...just wanted to drop you a note that i listen to your qeej and kwvtxhiaj a lot. again, i really enjoy the melody of the qeej. it sounds very nice. some of your songs are very new to me and i haven't heard before, especially nkauj su. taboo is part of hmong believe in our culture and certain songs can't be played in the house but i played your songs as loud as i could. i don't believe that it's bad to play in your dwelling. keep posting your new qeej and kwvtxhiaj.

  • Tom,

    It is reassuring that these songs are being listened to. And yes, I too believe that these are just songs...and it is perfectly ok to play them as regular "songs." Will continue to post more in the future.

see all

  • Hmong,

    In Laos, sometime in 1960, there were 2 women in Xeev who played the qeej at funerals. Even though it is not a normal thing for women, they can learn it if they want to. there is no taboo in that.

  • To be honest, I've seen women tshuab qeej before at the funeral from a Hmong Merced Organization in California, but it's just the elders and older generation that say and believe that women can't play it. But I'm sure it's just their own ways of seeing it, so I agree with you that women should also go for it instead of just the men. Also, when reciting it into words, the women would definitely sound better because usually they have a better tone of voice.

  • yes they can. My grandma plays qeej but not for funerals.
