Orchesterbesetzung
The five soloists include an improvising "western" saxophone player and four Kazak folk musicians. The four Kazak musicians play the kobyz (which resembles a violin but has only two strings and is played in an upright fashion on the knee), the saz syrmay (which is the Kazak version of the ocarina), the dombra (similar to a balalaika with two strings), and the jaw's harp (doubling bass voice drone).
