Singing, Dongbula: Manaphaz Musa Khan

The Dongbula is perhaps the most familiar national instrument unique to Kazakhstan. This wonderful plucked instrument used to be fashioned from a whole block of pine or birch, with long slender poles and fingers on the neck, and beautiful and simple cases of various shapes with two gut strings. It is light, carried on nomadic migrations, cradled in the arms of the herdsmen or their singers - Akan, by the campfire, on the back of the horse, singing between the strings, is a poem, encapsulating their lives, joys and sorrows and endless scenery, "song and horse are the two wings of the Kazakh people."

A long song can be a cry, the sad song, the sound of his lover's name, Halia, that is the singer, a famous wrestler Balle Cholak's song, he and Halia deeply in love, but because of the jealousy of people around, in a variety of traps and provocation was separated. In the fierce playing, the urgent Dongbula clanging, such as swords, swords and iron horses, such as split silks, a cavity nowhere to vent the boiling effort, the vigorous male voice fiercely singing he nowhere to place the deep feeling, and strongly accused those who made him lose love out of jealousy of the frame-up.
