He gets a much better tone out of that fiddle than I expected.

So there's a japanese restaurant I spend a lot of time at and for a long time I'd see a man playing the morin huur. I only knew vaguely about throat singing at first so I enjoyed it but didn't think much about it. Until one day I actually noticed that most of those sounds weren't coming from his instrument. I am blown away every time I hear this. It's amazing to hear this type of singing and even more stunning to witness close up.
