Republic of Tuva • Central Asia • Population = 305,000
Tuvan Throat Singing • Developed among the nomadic herdsmen • Two, three, or even four pitches simultaneously. • DRONE + OVERTONES • Mimic sounds of the natural world • whistling birds, bubbling streams, howling wolves and blowing wind. • http://www.alashensemble.com/about_tts.htm
Why do I like it? • I am fascinated by the sound. • I’d like to be able to do it someday. • I love listening to music from other cultures.
Oitulaash Xeveri (song title) • Tuvan social tradition • Young people hang out without elders around • Trade couplets • Try to “one up” each other • Horses & Women • Arranged by Alash • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqRdGXuCsT8&feature=related
