The Dombra
The dombra is a beautiful string instrument. It is called the queen of Kazakh
instruments. It's got a pear-shaped wooden body with a long neck and two
strings. Traditionally the strings were made from sinew but today nylon ones
are used. The dombra is an instrument with a long history. Many Kazakh
families have at least one person who can play it. It is usually played on its
own or used to accompany traditional songs. It sounds great as part of a
band, too. Some bands even use electric dombras to create music.
The Tin Whistle
The tin whistle is a traditional trish wind instrument that looks like a small flute. Today it
is made from a long narrow brass tube with six holes and a plastic mouthpiece. Irish
people have played the tin whistle since ancient times and it is one of the most popular
instruments in Irish traditional music. It is also called the penny* whistle because in the
past many beggars used to play it in the streets for money. Today, it is played by many
musicians and in many styles of music. The theme song of the 1997 film Titanic, 'My
Heart Will Go On', features an Irish tin whistle.
