How-to Book of Morin Huurs

(November 15, 1995)
One of the greatest problem for foreign beginners of Morin Huurs is a lack of the teaching system. We have recently succeeded to get a how-to book of Morin Huurs. This is wriitten in Mongolia, but we can make a great use of it because of its rich figures and scores. G. Jam-yan

Morin Huur Now Available!

(November 2, 1995) Number limit in exporting Mongolian folk instruments. Our society will get just a few more.
The Throat-Singing Society has started direct import of Morin Huur (Horse-head fiddle) from Mongolia. Three folk music fans living in Sapporo have already got the Morin Huurs through this, and five are waiting for the arrival. Tourists hardly go to Mongolia in winter, and this is why we can get Morin Huurs cheeper than usual.
