Comment
fr Enregistré en situation. Annonce de J. Dournes. VIELE: vièle monocorde köni. CITHARE: cithare à deux cordes ddong. Particularités, la pièce est jouée par un seul musicien qui combine les deux instruments (vièle köni et cithare ddong). De plus, jouer la vièle monocorde köni implique que le musicien produit aussi des sons avec sa voix, une corde attachée à celle de l’instrument est tenue avec sa bouche. Il fredonne les dents serrées.
en Recorded in situ. Vocal introduction by J. Dournes. Fiddle: monochord fiddle köni, ZITHER: two-stringed zither ddong. Particularities: the piece is played by a single musician who plays two instruments (the fiddle köni and the two-stringed zither ddong). Furthermore, playing the monochord fiddle 'köni' requres that the musician also produces sounds with his voice: a separate string is attached to the string of the instrument and held by his mouth. He hums through gritted teeth.
