The secret behind Yakut’s sound capability lies in the construction of its steel mechanism, which has a special tongue adjustment. It results in the creation of a sharp, bright and even oversaturated sound, yet its ability to hum does not affect the timbre of this type of the mouth harp. Yakut jaw harp instrument is beloved by the musicians for its sound stratification that is being achieved through the tongue design. The tongue of this instrument is folded back from the plane frame and, therefore, facilitating the “inflation” of the sound. The balanced combination of small gaps with a medium-hard tongue allows Yakut mouth harp to perform with higher sensitivity and produce bright and prominent sound. It opens up beautifully when played at a deliberate pace and with the use of breathing and laryngeal techniques. Despite the fact that Yakut is greatly popular among the beginner jaw harp players, it will cast a spell on any musical enthusiast of any level.
