The morin khuur: An instrument that neighs like a horse
The morin khuur, also known as the horse-head fiddle, takes its name from the carved horse head atop its neck. A traditional stringed instrument of the Mongolian ethnic group, its sound imitates the wind, the hooves and the neighing of a horse. It carries the memory of nomadic people, captured in a sound. This is the story of an instrument and the echo of a culture through time. On the occasion of the Chinese New Year, may the sound of the morin khuur carry you across mountains and plains, stirring something deep within.
