Track description:

The whole piece of wood is carved out of the bow of the ancient simple body, the lower back is wrapped in camel lamb or sheep skin, the neck is thin and long, the belly is open, like a swan with wings, and the horsetail string is set on the first only one, and later added, with the horsetail bow played, it is soft, delicate and deep as the melody. It's an ancient Kazakh instrument, the Kubuz.

In ancient times, Kubuzi was a musical instrument used by Kazakh shamans to divinate and cure people. The wizard uses Kubuzi to play a beautiful tune to invite the God, the higher the skill, the more beautiful the melody, the sooner the god comes, it is the language carrier of communication between the wizard and the god.

This Kubuz song is called "Sarren", and Sarren has two meanings here, one is "pleasant melody", which describes the beauty and sound of the music, and the other is "ancient inheritance", which is the meaning carried in the melody - passing down the ancient traditions and pleasant melodies of Kazakh ancestors from generation to generation.
