Huun Huur Tu

Description

Tuvan throat singing and overtone singing are among the most fascinating vocal techniques in the world, and HUUN-HUUR-TU masterfully perform various styles. There is an unmistakable ritual character in this music, but HUUN-HUUR-TU also presents a strongly rhythmic orientation in contrast to all meditative tendencies. This captivating overtone singing remains deeply mysterious, capable of sounding up to three melodies simultaneously. Traditionally, Tuvan music was mostly performed by soloists, with musicians specializing in a particular genre or style. These genres and styles, in turn, originate from specific social occasions. HUUN-HUUR-TU's eclectic performances of old songs and melodies as a group, accompanied by instruments, move between all elements of Tuvan musical life. Fascinatingly exotic, yet simultaneously contemporary and modern.
