Inside the City Palace of Jaipur / Rajasthan in Northwest India I found Musicians and Marionette Puppetplayers who performed Folkmusic and Puppetdance of "Michael Jackson of India" and Snakecharmer and Cobra.
On my travel to Rajasthan and India I had a tiny instrument with me called Dan Moi from Vietnam also known as Jaw Harp or Mouth Harp. This little Instrument is 
made of Brass and it is very thin. 
Dan moi translates literally as "instrument of the lips" and they are perhaps one of the most versatile jaw harps available.
I showed the Dholakplayer my Instrument, played a bit and we just started spontaneously  an Improvisation with some questions and answers. In between I tried some Rhythm changes but the percussionist was keeping his beat.
However, It was fun to play with him.  

It was recorded by an Indian who watched the marionette puppet dance performance earlier. The movie was made on 15th December 2010 with a Bridge Camera Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ-18.
