This documentary is awesome! I saw it twice, and both times it made this
grown man cry. The passion of Paul for music is very touching.
It's called "Djenghis Blues" (not sure of the spelling).
Harp content?? I attempted throatsinging Kyrgyra (again spelling?) a few
times, and this week I did it through my Tombo bassharmonica and got an
incredibly low, deep D. I'll need a lot of practise though to be able to
repeat it at will every time.
