Experience here the beauty and power of the Yakutian Khomus Tarabukin Gerasim, a handmade and unique jaw harp made by master blacksmith Tarabukin. Classically, the master has held the sturdy frame and left his signature on the smoothly polished surface.
Its sound is soft and brilliant, sharp and penetrating - that can also be played loudly. The Khomus Tarabukin Gerasim allows the use of different playing techniques such as mouth, throat, diaphragm and tongue, letting you create multi-faceted soundscapes. This is also due to its wide dynamics, ranging from slow to medium, from devotional, meditative, spherical to dynamic and energetic. The vibrations are quite long to very long, which makes this Khomus by Tarabukin a perfect instrument for meditation.
The Khomus Tarabukin Gerasim comes with its own wooden box, so you can easily take your meditation equipment with you wherever you go.
In the province of Yakutia located in the far East of Russia the jaw harp is an instrument with national relevance. It is a symbol and an ambassador of that region. One of its refined artists goes by the name of Olena Podluzhnaya who uses the stage name UUTAi. DAN MOI met her in person and had a chat about the effects of jaw harp music to the human body.
Yesterday we had a visit from Yakutia, where the Jew's harp "Khomus" is the national musical instrument. After the Yakutian Jew's harp delegation had already visited our Ancient Trance Festival here in Taucha two weeks earlier, and as there was unfortunately not enough time for a visit to our Jew's harp paradise, they stopped by again on the way back from their concert tour.
On 15 February 2017 Spiridon Shishigin visited the project shop “Sinn und Sein” (Sense and Being) in Leipzig. About 30 fans and guests from the whole region gathered to see the world-famous jaw harp virtuoso from Yakutia in concert. A concert review.
Russia is a country with a handful of jaw harp traditions: in Sakha/Yakutia, in the Altai, and in Tuva the Khomus (or Komus) is played; in Bashkortostan the Kubyz is known, and in Western Russia and in the big cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg one can hear the name Vargan. An overview.
