Description

The Kyrgyz Temir-Ooz-Komuz is a solid construction of a small size - slightly smaller than the Altai komus. The tongue is wide for its length and elastic, with gaps between the decks of medium width. All of the above leads to stability during the game and allows you to apply quick and frequent punches without the risk of breaking the sound. On average, the sound is higher and smoother than usual with Altai harps; in terms of smoothness and low maximum volume, they are similar. But the shades that appear when using articulation and “shallow” breathing are better demonstrated by the Kyrgyz instrument and it behaves more confidently at high speeds.

A good instrument with your voice.
