Overview
Overview
Unlike the jaw harp, which is held against the teeth while being played, the đàn môi is held against the lips while the lamella is plucked. This gives much more flexibility to the player, leaving them freer to shape their oral cavity as a resonance chamber to amplify the instrument. It is often enclosed in a wooden or bamboo box when stored.
