  abstract = 	{This study, based upon recordings made by Henning Haslund-Christensen, describes several types of Mongolian music and the various instruments employed in musical interpretation. The author defines the song-genre of the Mongols and gives examples of each category contained in musical folklore. The actual musical scale of the Mongols is explained. The instruments i.e. fiddle, zither, guitar, flute, used by modern Mongols are correlated with their nomadic mode of existence. The appearance, construction, and sound of these musical instruments are outlined by the author in some detail. Included in this article is a chart that lists  songs according to tribe, tells how many strophes were recorded and published, and gives pertinent information about each song. The musical material referred to throughout the text has not, however, been reproduced for the Files. Photographs of Mongols playing their native musical instruments are included. HRAF pagination has been assigned to plates following the text.},
