Jew’s harp from Nepal – Murchunga mouth harp

Discover the fascinating world of overtones with this traditional jew’s harp from Nepal, also known as the murchunga or mouth harp. The jew’s harp is one of the oldest musical instruments in human history and is still played today in various cultures around the world.
This Nepalese jew’s harp consists of a brass frame with a flexible iron tongue. The frame is held against the teeth and the tongue is plucked with the finger. The sound produced is modulated by the shape of your mouth and your breath – creating impressive overtones and rhythmic sounds. Despite its simplicity, the murchunga allows for a surprisingly wide range of timbres – from humming and vibrating to mystical and trance-like.
