Voice and flute playing
Original description
en
Female voice and flute, by Nang Suy. he musician sings and plays alternately on a flute with two holes pierced near the closed extremities of the bamboo, the embouchure being in the centre of the instrument. Vocal and instrumental sounds mingle continuously in this improvisation. Nang Suy manifestly seeks to imitate the sound of the flute by her voice, such that the vocal and instrumental timbres are hard to tell apart.
The musician sings and plays for personal pleasure, also at village fêtes. Tran Quang Hai, cf. p.50 of booklet
