I was pretty happy to find the following video that tells the legend of Khokhoo Namjil or how the morin khuur was created:

A photo of a joroo (ambling) horse by G. Erdenetuya, joroo is a type of horse gait highly valued by Mongolians.
Some songs and music pieces inspired by the horse:
-Joroogiin joroo
-Naiman sharga
-Tsombon tuuraitai khuren
-Buural mori
-Khonin joroo mori
-Dorvon nastai khaliun
-Kheer mori
-Khokhoo Namjil
-Gunan khar
-Morini alkhaa
Jaakhan sharga, long song
Aisui khulgiin tuvurguun by Egschiglen, a contemporary piece. Takes you for a gallop in the steppe. Excellent......
