The oldest instrument in the world, known by various names, but called 'Morsing', in Kutch. The magical and characterful, Samadh, Headman of the Pathan Village, like a true host and showman, gave a demonstration of this amazing instrument. He claimed to be the only person in the world who could sing and play at the same time ! Since it requires being played through clenched teeth, this is no mean achievement. It wouldn't have been at all surprising to find that he owned a flying carpet as well !

MORSING IN KUTCH, GUJARAT (JAW HARP)
