Toiga sheshu – A Gift for the Holiday

The kyl kobyz or Kazakh fiddle carries this lovely wordless folk melody or kui. The jetigen or Kazakh autoharp supports the kyl kobyz's melody, while the shan kobyz or jaw harp provides accents. As with other kui, Toiga sheshu would traditionally be performed at a celebration like a wedding or a feast by just one performer. This ensemble arrangement is unique to Roksonaki. Enjoy!
