BRAND NEWFactory FreshSNOOPY\'S JAWHARP MOUTH HARP JEW\'S HARP with instructions, made in the USA, by Trophy Musical Instrument Co. of Cleveland, Ohioand featured in the motion picture \"A Boy Named Charlie Brown\".
The Jew\'s harp, jaw harp, mouth harp, or Ozark harp as it is often called is thought to be one of the oldest musical instruments in the world and dates back as far as the 3rd century BC. The instrument is known in many different cultures by many different names.Despite it\'s name or alternate references the \"JAW (JEWS) HARP\" is actuallynative to Asia and used in all tribes of Turkish people in Asia.
The instrument is a lamellophone, which is in the category of plucked idiophines: it consists of a flexible metal tongue or reed attached to a frame.
The Jaw (Jew\'s) Harp is played by creating a stream of air stimulated to sound by a reed. The tongue/reed is placed in the performer\'s mouth and plucked with the finger to produce a note. The frame is held firmly against the performer\'s parted front teeth, using the jaw (thus \"jaw harp\") and mouth as a resonator, greatly increasing the volume of the instrument. The teeth must be parted sufficiently for the reed to vibrate freely ,and the fleshy parts of the mouth should not come into contact with the reed to prevent damping of the vibrations.
The note thus produced is constant in pitch, though by changing the shape of his or her mouth and the amount of air contained in it the performer can cause differentovertones to sound and thus create melodies. The volume of the note can be varied by breathing in and out. A helpful practice is to shape your vocal cords as if to say \"ear of corn\" repeatedly, until you learn how to further vary the pitch.
