Since then I have been reading and watching videos about Chinggis Khaan, and I have decided to learn to play Morin Khuur in my fifties. I keep thinking too bad there was no internet when I was young. Seeing the rest of the world makes life so much more worthwhile.

My first encounter with the Morin Khuur was when I heard The Hu a few years ago. Then I stumbled over a video by Sun Kuaikuai. I was attracted to her eyes and beauty, but it only took me a few seconds to realize that she is also a skilled Morin Khuur player. So I looked up more of her videos on KZitem and Baidu. I must say that I like the sound of the Morin Khuur but I don't know very much about it, so I find it very interesting when I come across videos like this one. I haven't had time to go through your channel yet so I don't know if you have more videos like this one, but I hope you will post more similar videos. The bow look like a modern cello bow while, like you said, the traditional bow is more like an arc. Is there any difference whatsoever between the two bow types when you play? Does the Morin Khuur come in different sizes, like alto, tenor, baryton? If so, how do you refer to them in Mongolian? I understand that the strings are made from hair from a horse's tail. How are they treated and made into strings? How do you string and tune the Morin Khuur? When and where did the Morin Khuur first occur and how and how wide did it spread in the world? Thank you for the video and for reading this lengthy comment.

Differences between the two bow types: Traditional arc-like bow is not tension adjustable, no standard size. Modern bow is made in one general size, and it's adjustable on the tension, allow you to change the bow tension based on your repertoires. Does the Morin Khuur come in different sizes? Traditionally, morin khuur doesn't have a standrad size, people make thier own instruments, some are tall and some intruments are small. Academically, students commonly uses standrad sized Morin Khuur, those instruments are come from factories. As I said in the video, you could see two standrad size of morin khuur nowadays, one from the Country Mongolia, another one from South Mongolia (both developed around 1980s). As for horse hair strings and bow, it's a lot to cover, like knowing which hair is best for bow and strings, cleaning, preparing and tensioning the hair,etc. Two ways of Morin Khuur Tuning: Perfect Forth and Perfect Fifth. I don't know exactly when and where did the Morin Khuur first occur, but we have lots of folklores towards our musical instruments' and its history. I'll have to research more on this topic. Hope I answered some of your questions, if you are interested, you could sign up for my morin khuur lessons, I'm teaching in Chicago area in person and others locations through online lesson.

Hi Philip, Morin khuur blends pretty well with different styles of music. Tenger Calvary is a great example of having folk instruments into heavy metal set. One of the pioneer band inspired lots of Mongolian rock metal bands on their sound design. The Morin Khuur Part of [Lone Wolf] is not that hard to play. For your Morin Khuur purchase, I have no experience shopping Morin khuur online, so couldn’t tell which website is reliable. I suggest find your instrument through someone you know personally.

I must say...I am intrigued. I've been researching bowed instruments and even bought a Chinese erhu. I am curious as to what the strange fingering (the index finger placed inside and against the side of the strong) achieves that makes it essential to playing the morin khuur. Can not the same be achieved by simply touching the strings cello- or erhu-style? If not, can you say WHY not?
