Bonjour,

Je m'intéresse pour de prochains concerts avec une musicienne mongole au shanagan huur, ancêtre de la vièle cheval (Morin Huur) de Mongolie. ("vièle louche", tronc creusé pour faire une sorte de grosse cuillère, couvert de peau de chèvre)

Je cherche des sources archéo anciennes sur ces instruments:

-depuis quand le "Morin Huur" (avec cette tête de cheval) ?

-Quelles sources archéo pour le shanagan huur ou le Morin huur ?

J'ai vu dans un livre (Mongolian Music, 2001, Carole Pegg) qu'il n'existait qu'un shanagan huur ancien, ayant appartenu à des générations d'une même famille, de la province d'Aranghai, Mongolie centrale, avec tête de dragon ou serpent des mers.

Quelqu'un aurait-il des photos ou liens pour le voir?

Voici une video d'une expo avec reconstitutions d'instruments que m'a transmise ma collègue, mais j'aimerais trouver les sources de ces reconstitutions.

    Hello everyone,

    I am working on a new project with a mongol musician who plays the mongol horse-headed fiddle, and I am looking for materials and documents concerning the origin of this fiddle. The ancestor is a bowed instrument called "Shanagan khuur" or "Shanagan huur" aka as the "ladle fiddle" , made out of a piece of trunk that you dig to create a big wooden ladle, which you then cover with goat skin.

    I am looking for archeological material concerning this fiddle:

    - when did the Morin khuur (the horse headed fiddle) appear?

    - what kind of archeological documents can we find on the shanagan khuur (ladle fiddle) and/or the Morin khuur (horse headed fiddle)?

    I read in the book (Mongolian Music, 2001, Carole Pegg) that there is only one ancient shanagan khuur that remains, with either a dragon head or a seaserpent, dating back from several generations of a family who lives in Arkhangai, Mongolia's central province.

    Does anyone have pictures or links to see this instrument?
    Here is also a video of an instrument exhibition in Mongolia, that my colleague shared with me. But I am more interested in finding the sources of the making of these instruments.

    Thank you for your help!
