CHIRGILCHIN
MASTER THROAT-SINGERS
OF TUVA
Chirgilchin is an outstanding group of throat-singing musicians from Tuva. The group sings ancient folk songs in the Tuvan language and plays their own handmade traditional instruments.
"Throat-singing" is an extraordinary vocal form in which one singer produces two or more voices simultaneously, harmonizing one with another to create richly layered melodies which evoke central Asian steppes and nomadic life.
