PHNONG IN CAMBODIA 1 (INSTRUMENTS)

Enregistrements de terrain parLaurent Jeanneau & Sylvain Vogel en 2007 dans la province de Mondolkiri, à l'est du Cambodge. Le disque présente de la musique traditionnelle jouée sur des instruments en bambou, dont un ancêtre de l'orgue à bouche (mbouat) et des ensembles de gongs. Quelques notes en anglais. (ASDS)

"The majority of people living in Mondolkiri province are PHNONG, related to the Mnong ethnic group on the other side of the boarder in Vietnam, they belong to the MON Khmer family and are the first inhabitants of this area. With other ethnic groups of the area, they share a lot musically, especially the fascination for gong playing in animist ceremonies, but also similar bamboo instruments. Nowadays they only use 6 cengs or flat gongs. Here is a collection of various instruments that can be found within those communities, it includes the pretty unique "mbouat", ancestor of the mouth organ found in many parts of South East Asia."
