The Qeej is like spoken language to the Hmong people, and its players are seen as storytellers. It's often played at funerals to guide the departed to the spiritual world. Growing up, I played this instrument for many years, seeing it as a source of joy and entertainment, much like our Hmong relatives in China. I hope to visit them one day to learn more about how they use the Qeej and other Hmong instruments. Found this video on TikTok. Not my video 🙂 #Hmoob #Qeej #hmong @followers | Silver You
