Description
The Khmu number 450,000 in Laos and small communities in Vietnam, China and Thailand. Belonging to the Mon-khmer family, the Khmu are also divided in subgroups.
Many Khmu in Laos have been acculturated by Lao influence and so the music you ca listen here can only be found in rural areas where the older people still remember their traditional music and singing techniques.
