Morin Khur

Lark In The Morning

Lark In The Morning

The Morin Khur or Horse Headed Violin is the national instrument of Mongolia. Among the oldest of all bowed instruments. Originally made from a horse head for the body, horse skin for the resonator, and horse hair for the strings and bow. Much of the music typically imitates a horse; the rhythms made by galloping horse feet, the whinnying, etc. The modern Morin Khur has a wooden body and ...

The Travels of Marco Polo31 reviews
Marco Polo, Ronald Latham

Penguin Classics, 1958

The Size of the World

+ Barely believable adventures.
+ Marco's journey

It has been a pleasure to revisit the travels of Marco Polo. I was transfixed by these stories of travel and adventure when I was a child, and never questioned the veracity of the narrative. I know today that the narrative has been corrupted over the centuries, that "The Travels" can scarcely be ...

Andre Tolme

Da Capo Press, 2006

One-of-A-Kind Adventure Story

+ Weird but Good
+ actually, a good balance between golf & mongolia

Mr. Tome's writing is witty, cogent and flowing, and he carries his reader lightly through an adventure that was anything but carefree and whimsical. "I Golfed Across Mongolia" offers insight into humanity's innate curiosity with all things alien, as well as our resourcefulness in the face of ...

Marc Cramer's book, Imperial Mongolian Cooking, rings true. Too often ethnic cookbooks err by either presenting recipes with ingredients and utensils so exotic that unless you happen to be travelling through the Khyber Pass, they are impossible to achieve. Or, cookbooks are so generic and bland ...

Egschiglen

Arc Music, 2001

'too' chinese ?

+ nice Mongolian folk music

In comparison to other Mongolian arists like Huun Huur Tu, this cd is,as the previous reviewer mentioned, quite polished and very listener friendly with a more modern feel to it. Also, you can hear the influence of chinese music, which makes Egschiglen's music more "tonal" than the music of Huun ...
