Kong Nay was born March 15, 1944 in Kampot, Cambodia. He is Cambodia’s most recognizable traditional musician. Kong Nay was blinded by smallpox at age four. He began his studies playing the Chapei Dong Weng at the age of thirteen. Chapei is Cambodia’s three stringed guitar and also music style where songs are improvised while playing the Chapei. Coming from a musical family, Kong Nay grew up around relatives who were masters of traditional instruments, copying religious manuscripts, Buddhist chanting, poetry and the Chapei Dong Weng. In his youth, Kong Nay often faced ridicule from his peers for his disability. Rather than being dis-empowered by their prejudice, however, Kong Nay sought to find a vocation that would bring him independence and respect. The Chapei, whose sound had excited him from childhood, turned out to be the perfect instrument. Within two years of beginning his studies, at the age of fifteen Kong Nay began to perform professionally. His reputation grew quickly, and he soon earned the nickname Kong “Handsome” Nay. During the Khmer Rouge genocide, Kong Nay, like so many other Cambodians, was forced to work for long hours with little food. Unlike most of his fellow musicians, however, Kong Nay was unbelievably spared from the regime’s attempts to wipe out intellectuals and artists. In 2007 he received the Gold Grand Cross of Cambodia Cultural Reputation by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen. In 2017 Kong Nay received the Arts and Culture Prize of the prestigious Fukuoka Prize.
As a Cambodian, I am very proud that this Cambodian song is only popular in Cambodia but also abroad. I would like to thank all the Cambodian and international audiences for their help. Support this Khmer song and wish to meet only the four blessings of the Buddha, age, class, happiness, strength, do not forget.
Master Kong Nay is a legendary star of Chapey(ចាប៉ី) which ,is the player play and sing the poetry immediately and directly without any script, has two strings. In this video, he represented to many ancient art of Cambodia such as Lakorn Basak, Chapey, and Ah Yai. As we know Cambodia is a kind of cultural in South Asian. Because of the war, we lost millions of artists who good at many kinda arts. Anyway, thanks for this reaction to spread out the world to know about our culture and many ancient arts, especially know king of rappers Vannda.
Master Kong Nay is the old gentleman in the music video. He plays Chapey Dong Veng (a traditional musical instrument of Cambodia) and sings (poems) without pre-writing. That man is a legend.
I want to remind a little bit about what you said “they used xylophone" actually, they used the khmer instrument called រនាថ - Ronet and it's familiar. You can check more about its info ^^ and thanksQ for support this song.
Kong Nay is a Cambodian musician who plays the chapei dong veng. He is one of relatively few great masters to have survived the Khmer Rouge era, and is known as the "Ray Charles of Cambodia". He received the 2017 Fukuoka Arts and Culture Prize
I'd like to thank my father for teaching me the Cambodian language when I was a child. Without him, I would be missing out on the best music coming out of Asia. I am Vietnamese living in Washington state. Oh and thank you for the review. You guys keep doing your thing.
Master Kong Nai is a “ Chapei Dong Veng “ ( classical Cambodian two string, long-necked guitar) musician. He’s one of 17 National Living Human Treasures of Cambodia.
Ah-Yai អាយ៉ៃ is the ancient form of Cambodian art requiring poetry writing skills and flexibility. Usually, the artist will be singing about traditional, cultural, educational, and social topics. They have to read and practice a lot to master the flow of their poetry. We can say Ah-Yai is an ancient rap but with positive and educational content only. We have both male and female Ah-Yai artists. On some occasions, both male and female artists will duo the song with the unprepared script to challenge each other's skills. Master Kong Nay is the king of Ah-Yai artists in Cambodia.
🔥🔥🔥💯 This is the best reaction I’ve seen. These guys took the time to do research on the background of the featuring artist Who is pretty much the OG of what remains of Cambodian traditional music.
