Лавка. Yakut Khomuses. "Minion" Khomus by Khristoforov (YKh116-KCh)

Place of manufacture : Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)

Reed lenth: 63 mm
Rigidity: Medium, Hard
Material : steel
Set : khomus + artificial leather pouch

Description: : A miniature ringed khomus from the Yakut master Khristoforov.
The instrument turned out to be loud, brightly firing high overtones, if I may say so - slightly "snooty". The sound spectrum is uniform, not overloaded.
The khomus has a rather long sustain for its size and the rigidity of the reed, which further enhances its capabilities.
The reed is significantly sensitive to articulation, which is especially interesting when playing in small volumes. The khomus unusually beautifully sings "in the throat", responsive to various breathing techniques.
It is loyal to the quality and accuracy of the beat, symmetrical when playing in both directions.
Playing music on this instrument is pleasant in any rhythm, but still he is more inclined to speed play.
