Today, October 9, 2015, my father left us all to go to heaven. Now all we have left are his music. It's what will forever be in our hearts. Mus zoo koj mog kuv txiv siab zoo. Thov kom lwm tiam peb tau rov los ua txiv tub. Kuv hlub koj os kuv txiv.
+Brian Vang I am so sorry to hear that. I just heard from my mom yesterday. I was hoping to meet Uncle one more time. Now we will no longer see him at the new years selling Hmong instrument. Mus zoo koj os hlob Txooj Yig.
So sad to be left without one our great talented grandfather. May his soul rest in peace. We will miss you so very much. Your voice and inspirational instrumental music will always have an echo in everyones memory. We love you Grandpa.
This message is to his family. Whoever still owns Txoojyig Lauj's flute music could anyone please post some to the public and let the people who like to listen to your father/grandpa bamboo flute. Thanks I hope that you may reply my comments.
OMG! if he is your uncle then we are related. FB me at Kabziag Lauj Thoj so we can get to know if each other as I am trying to reach relatives from my dad's side of the family. BTW, I'm in Seattle. This uncle and his son in law came to my MIL funeral in my dad's place because my dad went to the Grandma's funeral in Colorado. My dad is the Uncle Nom Chue's oldest brother.
Kuv thov qhuas cov neeg txawj tshuab raj, especially Txooj Yig Lauj. Tshuab raj no yuav tsum yog cov neeg lub ntsws zoo ua tau pa ntev ntev. I think it is more difficult than raj kub txig. Raj kub txig mas siv ob txhais tes xwb tsis siv pa. Raj nplaim no mas siv pa thiab siv ob txhais tes.
I always wonder how this type of instrumental music was played! Kudos! I'm embarrassed to say my generation will never learned this traditional instrument as we are too of "the new world".
Dab laug txooj yig aw pom thiab jnov koj tshuab raj thiab kuv tij laug txooj neeb neb cov rajas nco neb kawg li os nim no neb mus nyob dua qhov twg lm os
