While "Freestailo!" was fun, this video will show the more traditional Dombra tradition in Kazakhstan (oh, and the video has camels for Steph).
Dombra
The dombra is a pear shaped long necked lute of the Kazakh people of Central Asia. It has a slender long neck with fourteen gut frets and two gut strings. The dombra was traditionally used to accompany epic poems and folk songs, but now virtuosic instrumental pieces are also common.

HA HA HA- I love it! Random camels interspersed with the music. I'm still not riding one. ;09
ReplyDeleteI know, right? It is funny that I spend so much time focusing on the camel when the horse seems more important culturally.
