Jews harp with stable reed with moderately low pitch suitable for most striking techniques. Timbre is saturated and great for percussive/trance styles or melodic intonation without clean overtones. Sensitivity is great and smallest moving gives distinctive sound change. Must be gripped accurately, especially during intensive play - it is not souvenir jaw harp for casual fun. Jews Harp Jews harp - mouth musical instrument, producing very unusual sounds by stroking its reed while frame end is pressed to teeth. Timbre and pitch changes by moving tongue, lips, throat and breathing. Jews harps can be very different - it is a whole world. It can be used for playing music using overtones (set of JH notes, slightly different from modern musical scale). It can be used for fun - every single stroke is an unique experience and it is harp to stop doing that, starting once. It can be used to remembering our tribal roots and finding piece and harmony with nature. All you need is to "pluck", listen and feel. Jews harp is one of the oldest musical instruments in the world with pocket size. Almost forgotten in the last century harp made a few masters in all parts of the world, and over the past 10 years even improved in acoustic terms. Its rhythmic possibilities are endless and ability to change timbre in extreme, unusual ways are spectacular. Pure melodic playing with distinct overtones is possible too (with best musical models). Jaw harp, juice harp, mouth harp, ozark harp, trump, jew's trump are obsolete or wrong names of the jews harp. This name has nothing common with the Jewish people. Other names for jew's harp in various regions of the world are: vargan, khomus, guimbarde, maultrommel, munnharpe, kubyz, dan moi, mondharp, temir-komuz, morsing, morchang, doromb, parmupill. More than 1000 names are known. How to produce sounds To produce first sound, two frame ends must be hardly pressed to upper and lower teeth - not to lips - with left hand. Right index finger, vertically positioned, will stroke reed elbow at direction, perpendicular to frame plane, inward and outward. Most common mistakes Dampening reed with lips - try to remove them completely from the frame first time. Lips should not help to hold jews harps. Pressing frame to lips instead of teeth - sound will be muffled and quiet. Pressing frame too hard, squeezing it with lips or fingers - in this case you will hear metallic clanging when reed hit frame. IT IS NOT JEWS HARP FAULT and nothing should be "repaired", except handling accuracy! If all ok and you started buzzing, try to move tongue, throat, change shape of mouth. Some positions will produce exact notes; some just change timbre and volume. Let the fun begins!

Waiting for you Jews Harp Art! Review: My First Harp - Thumbs Up - This is the first harp I've owned so I don't have anything to compare it to but it is made well - both harp and case. I need to build up my "chops" but it has been enjoyable starting out on this Oberton Pro "Turatash" Jews harp. Great sound and the etching on the back of the wood case is stunning. I am very happy with this purchase. Review: По-настоящему - It works and sounds great. Best harp I’ve ever had. Makes me sound better than I am. It’s best to have some chops before you get it though. It could be tough on novice teeth and lips that get in the way.

It works and sounds great. Best harp I’ve ever had. Makes me sound better than I am. It’s best to have some chops before you get it though. It could be tough on novice teeth and lips that get in the way.
