The arched harp "saung gauk" from Myanmar possibly links back to the ancient harps of Mesopotamia. Besides the "patala" xylophone it is the main instrument for the rich chamber music tradition. The different tunings of the harp result in musical modes, which represent the only "modal" use of scales in Asia with Vietnam and India.
