text: Thanks for your work Hyacinth. I see your name everywhere. Here are the two most educational videos I've found so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6jHKJ-h0zU That teacher/performer, Khac Chi, demonstrates a wide range of techniqes in one short piece, such as hammering the far end of the string against the fret-like structures that a few of the instruments have, giving the impression of sounding two notes at once by plucking a certain way (a sort of overtone on the overtone if you will), bending really far, etc. He's the only one that I've seen play the open string (1/1) too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6ERWC7JhdA That teacher, Thanh Huy, has the most accurate left hand. She immediately bends to the exact traditional (non-12EDO) pitches. 66.27.164.74 (talk) 02:55, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Additional citations

message: Hm. The description of pitches isn't clear in this sentence: "So the pinky plays flageolets, similar to what guitar players do at the string positions above the octave (1/2), the perfect fifth (2/3), the perfect fourth (3/4), the just major third (4/5), the just minor third (5/6) and two tones not appearing in the Western scale: the septimal minor third (6/7) and the septimal whole tone (7/8)." First, those ratios are upside down, and second, they indicate the intervals between succesively higher notes, not the notes themselves. The notes themselves, relative to the open string, would be 2/1, 3/1, 4/1, 5/1, 6/1, 7/1, and 8/1. For example, if the open string is tuned to C, the available (unbent) pitches are [C, G, C, E, G, Bb, C], not [C, G, F, Eb, Eb-, D] as the quoted series implies. There is no unbent way to pluck the just minor third above C. You have to pluck the just major third and bend down to it. Also, I think the real players skip the 7/1 Bb, so there are 6 standard plucking points, not 7. 66.27.164.74 (talk) 02:25, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
