Comment
fr Enregistré en situation. Annonce de J. Dournes. VIELE: vièle monocorde köni. 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. Playing the monochord fiddle köni requires 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.
