Kūt Live

My wife and I saw a Kyrgyz musical folklore group called “KÅ«t” perform live at the Orem Library on Friday. I was really impressed at their musicianship and even bought a CD.

Kyrgyz Music

From the CD insert: “The family plays all traditional instruments [of Kyrgykstan] including various string instruments, flutes and drums –the komus, kyl kyiak, temir and jygach ooz komuz, choor, dobulbas, sybyzgy and the chogoino choor.”

Needless to say there were some pretty exotic sounds. If you like world music, contact Vista 360 and tell them you’d like to check these guys out.

Thanks to Vista 360 for putting this on, and thanks to my former entrepreneurship professor Dr. Kent Millington for providing the photo.
