Huun Huur Tu
This indigenous music highlights rare instruments and preserves what is arguably some of the world's oldest form of music making. The best known genre of Tuvan music, xöömei (throat-singing), comprises what one might call a lexicon of musical onomatopoeia in which natural sounds are mimetically transformed into musical representations. Through their music they work hard to capture the full sonic spectrum of the horse-hair fiddle, the igil; the shoor, a vertical flute; the bowed byzanche, an erhu-like fiddle with two sets of strings.
