Alash - Tuvan Throat Singers

Vermont Arts Exchange
North Bennington, VT


ALASH are masters of Tuvan throat singing (xmei), a remarkable technique for singing multiple pitches at the
same time. What distinguishes this gifted quartet from
earlier generations of Tuvan throat singers is the subtle
infusion of modern influences into their traditional music.
One can find complex harmonies, western instruments,
and contemporary song forms in Alashs music, but its
overall sound and spirit is decidedly Tuvan.
