If I'd Been Born an Eagle

If I'd Been Born an Eagle (1997) more music like this

by Huun-Huur-Tu

Huun-Huur-Tu's third album shows the group broadening the scope of its music. As the ensemble members themselves point out, there's a great deal more to Tuvan music than throat singing, although it might well be the form that grabs a listener's attention. This is their attempt to show both the historical and contemporary colors of Tuva, with old ...

The Orphan's Lament

The Orphan's Lament (1994) more music like this

by Huun-Huur-Tu

From the first track, their second album, Orphan's Lament grabs your attention with "Prayer" -- the deep, unearthly, sounds of Tibetan Lamaist chant. Next they move to khoomei singing. Known in the West as "throat singing," the performer produces two or more high- and low-pitched tones simultaneously. The resulting sound -- somewhat eerie, ...

Where Young Grass Grows

Where Young Grass Grows (1999) more music like this

by Huun-Huur-Tu

The members of Huun-Huur-Tu continue to amaze with their acrobatic throat singing and the eerie, haunted overtones it produces. While this continues to be their trademark sound, it's easy to overlook the fact that they're also excellent instrumentalists and composers who have moved well beyond the traditional music of the region to create their ...

60 Horses in My Herd: Old Songs and Tunes of Tuva

60 Horses in My Herd: Old Songs and Tunes of Tuva (1994) more music like this

by Huun-Huur-Tu

With this album, the members of Huun-Huur-Tu prove beyond a doubt that they're the bridge between the past and present in Tuva: the past because they have deep respect for the tradition (utilizing traditional instruments such as igil and doshpuluur in addition to the wonderful ankle bones of sheep in bull testicles), and the present as they bring ...

Fly, Fly My Sadness

Fly, Fly My Sadness (1996) more music like this

by The Bulgarian Voices, Angelite & Huun-Huur-Tu

In the 1990s, it was discovered that the Bulgarian and the Tuvan people have the same roots, both originally inhabiting Central Asia. Because of great migrations more than 1,500 years ago, the original Tuvan somehow split in two groups; a group ended in what is now known as Bulgaria and the other in what is today Tuva. Because of numerous ...
