Chirgilchin – Tuvan Throat Singers October 23, 2009

Chirgilchin is a group of musicians from Tuva, a small Russian province north of Western Mongolia. Singing ancient folk songs in the Tuvan language, they utilize numerous styles of throat singing. The group also plays handmade traditional instruments. Their programs capture the spirit of Tuva, while creating a timeless connection to the land – the world of steppes, horses and nomadic life. Their most recent CD Pictures of Tuva was released last year.
