    Dear Chris,
    Yes indeed , more than 20 years already .
    Thank you for your compliments .
    I have not have an occasion to go to Germany in 2008 because I have many trips in other countries: Norway (May), Italy (June), Brazil (July), Norway (August), Venice, Italy (October). Last February I was in Canberra and Perth for teaching .
    Keep in touch
    Cheers, Tran Quang Hai

    Bonjour Hai.
    On c'est rencontré il y a 4 ans à Cannes. Un workshop de chant diphonique organisé avec Gérard Bertin. Tu m'a appris chanter mes premiers sons de khoomei...Ma tête rouge et mes yeux comme ceux d'une grenuille... On a rigolé tout la nuit aprés.

    Good to have you here.

    voilà fait j'ai mis même deux morceaux, espérons pouvoir inviter autres artistes, merci pour l'information
  • Gérard

    Une formidable idée que de rejoindre ce grand cercle des "overtones singers and others". Ça va me prendre du bon temps pour me fondre dans cette remarquable "confrèrie".
    Et qui je vois en-dessous de mon message ? Paul, tu vas bien ?

    Je t'embrasse bien fort, Hai et te dis à très bientôt
  • Raffaello Regoli

    Cher Hai, j'ai mis en angle la page de l'arbre du chante, même ai modifié la case de téléphone, peut-être maintenant tu réussis

  • Danibal

    thank you for the invitation. i'll will do my best. and see you around. perhaps on another jew's harp occasion.
  • Pedro ESPI-SANCHIS

    Hello,
    Yes, it is good to be within the family of the overtone addicts. I uploaded two songs Mado and I do with MadoJazz. The flute is always one of those Lekgodilos without any side holes. The one playing on Surinam is an idea of mine with a trombone effect so I can modulate and play in different keys and particularly get that glissando effect.

    Hello Hai,

    I thought I'd send you a message in case you can make use of the opportunity.
    I have exciting news to convey. Madosini, the woman you see in the photograph with me and is a world authority performer on musical bows is going to be available in Europe from the 7th to the 17th of July. After that period she is taking part in the "Le Reve de l'Indigene" in Orleans and then the Womad Festivals in the UK.
    I need to find her and her UK based co-performer (who serves as an interpreter as well as she only speaks deep Xhosa) some work in that time. Please circulate the news and tell me if you think of a possible event. She truly is as you know unique as a performer.
    Have a look at her playing one of her songs on YouTube. Search for "MadoJazz".Bonjour Gerard,

  • Raphael De Cock

    Dear Tran Quang Hai,
    Your name reverberates everywhere where I go. Nice to see you here. Vladiswar introduced me and I am still exploring. I am just back from my beloved Sardinia where I "study" the Sardinian polyphonie (the guttural ànd the less guttural styles). Greetings from Ignazio Machiarella, Bustianu Pilosu.... and all tenore singers.

    Thank you for the comment, I've already joined the jew's harp group. By the way, I really enjoyed Your lecture on throat singing at the 3rd Hungarian Jew's Harp Festival last September. :)
