RADİK TYULYUSH and the project “CHALAMA”
Radik Tyulyush and the project “Chalama”. Chalama means coloured ribbons tied to the branches of the sacred trees and at the sacred places (ovaa) in Tuva. Chalama for the Tuvinians is a prayer, respect to the nature and the ancestors. Music of the Tuvinian people is one of the nomads – the people who closely connected and are in contact with the nature and wildlife. Therefore you can listen to special sounding – imitation of ambient sounds, which are converted into a song. When you listen to Radik’s singing – you can hear the nature, something very natural, consonant with the soul and at the same time harmonizing the inner state, as if it were a mantra. The music of the project is an atmosphere, which can be felt enough only at a live concert, when everybody and everything is “here and now”, when the live music is borning. Sincerity and perfect singing and playing the Tuvinian musical instruments sounds like water in a mountain spring, and everyone is impressed with the performance. Despite the fact that this music is very unusual for the perception of it is fascinating with not only the technique and sounding, but also a special flavor, because in this music you can also hear echoes of the ritual, shamanic singing, but the songs have no religious background. As Radik says, who briefly retells the meaning of each song before the singing, these songs are about love, about the beauty of a girl, about nature, about the styles of throat singing and impetuous running of a horse … Radik Tyulyush sings traditional Tuvinian songs and his own songs, designed to reveal the musical heritage of the Tuvinian people. Despite the presence of modern musical “components”, this music is really popular, almost like in its original form, but not rigid framework. It is free, it is on the brink, keeping the traditions and showing some new sounding like any phenomenon that is constantly evolving with the passage of time, becoming deep and wise. The other participants of “Chalama” project are Sergey Kalachev known as Grebstel (he plays a bass-guitar) and Gennady Lavrentyev (he plays tabla-Tarang and violin). The permanent members of the project create joint truly amazing and fascinating fabric of eternal music. Text: Anna Rzhevina

THE MYSTERY OF TUVAN KHÖÖMEI
THE MYSTERY OF TUVAN KHÖÖMEI ( THROAT SINGING)
What is the history behind the developement of khöömei?
The phenomenon of Tuvan throat-singing, with its various styles of performance, continues to amaze people. The spiritual world of the Tuvans, like their lifestyle itself, consolidated and embodied the freedom-loving impulses of the steppe dwellers, the inhabitants of Inner Asia.
If one imagines how endless a steppe road is, how unhurried a Tuvan horse’s tread or pensive a camel’s step is, how far steppe roads and mountain paths stretch, then it will not be difficult to realize that the life of a Tuvan in the steppe is inconceivable without sygyt-khöömei, a symbol of the Tuvan steppe that is as quiet, measured, and interminable as life itself. It is not without reason that Tuvans puzzled ethnographers when they could not answer the question: “How old are you?” The matter was not that they were unable to count. This question itself made no sense to them because time per se was an abstract notion.
Nature created a striking acoustic effect in the mountains and steppes of Tuva, where every loud word echoes with deafening reiterations. Over time Tuvans learned how to extract from these sounds the incomparable melodies that are the hallmark of the Tuvan national singing tradition. This is why from time immemorial Tuvan throat singing has been the eternal companion of singers and storytellers.
A khöömeizhi was a welcome and honored guest in any yurt, who always gave his listeners the gift of his music, born in the heart and soul of his people. The melodies of khöömei accompanied the Tuvan people in all their joys and sorrows.
Khöömei Is a phenomenon close to the soul of the Tuvan people a means of expressing the Tuvan worldview, a symbol of Tuvan spirituality, and the key to the spirit of the Tuvan people. It is in khöömei that Tuvans found consolation in their hour of need ancient times khöömei has helped Tuvans persevere, overcome hardships with dignity, and preserve their humanity.
If a nation loses its own unique identity, it will disappear from the face of the earth. Current data make it abundantly clear that not only of researchers, but also members of the younger generation are trying to preserve the art of singing, as well as the customs, rituals, and traditions of the Tuvan people. By exploring and researching Tuvan throat singing, we are able to revive all genres of musical culture long songs (uzun yrlar), short songs (kiska yrlar), refrains and ditties (kozhamyktar), as well as instrumental works for such traditional instruments as igil, byzaanchi, doshpuluur, khomus (mouth harp), and other bowed, plucked, wind, and percussion instruments
Khöömei is an art that attracts the attention not only of connoisseurs of folk music, but also of all those who would like to learn about the history of the music and the spiritual world of the Tuvan people, and of their lyrical and ritual songs. Every ethnic group has contributed to the development of human civilization and global cultural heritage. Tuvans likewise have their own contribution of great value, which has been passed down for centuries from generation to generation, and that is khöömei. Locals have preserved in memory several techniques of this art, including khöömei, ezengilleer borbangnadyr kargyraa, and sygyt.

The most distinctive characteristic of Huun Huur Tu’s music is throat singing, in which the singers sing both the note (drone) and the drone’s overtone(s), thus producing two or three notes simultaneously. The overtone may sound like a flute, whistle or bird, but is actually solely a product of the human voice.
The group primarily uses native Tuvan instruments such as the igil, khomus (Tuvan jaw harp), doshpuluur, and dünggür (shaman drum). However, in recent years, the group has begun to selectively incorporate western instruments, such as the guitar. While the thrust of Huun Huur Tu’s music is fundamentally indigenous Tuvan folk music, they also experiment with incorporating not only Western instruments, but electronic music as well.

HUUN HUUR TU WITH JAMES CARSON
Hailing from the high pastures of the Altai Mountains in south central Siberia, the Tuvan acoustic quartet Huun Huur Tu’s trademark sound derives from the use of overtone or “throat-singing” techniques which were invented by the nomadic hunter-herders of the Tuvan steppes and mountains. Traditionally, these were largely performed a cappella, but Huun Huur Tu were one of the first groups to combine them with ancient acoustic instruments such as the cello-like two-stringed igil, the four-stringed byzaanchi, the three-stringed doshpuluur and thekhmomuz – a local equivalent of the Jew’s Harp. Using these with percussion and voice, they create eerie harmonics and other worldly noises, even mimicking animals. As they began touring in the West seventeen years ago, Huun Huur Tu almost single-handedly introduced the outside world to the boundless wealth of Tuvan traditions, thanks in great part to their superior musicianship.
Canadian-American pianist James Carson has developed a striking new style of piano music and for the last four years has been directing Cabin Music, a feature film, to share it with the world. While studying at the New England Conservatory, James was struck by a spiritual epiphany which sparked a twelve year search to create and share this music with the world. He subsequently spent two years backpacking from Spain to Japan and then spent five years designing, building, and practicing in a remote strawbale cabin in Northern Alberta. The music result was a new piano technique that is blindingly fast but at the same time meditative and harmonious, similar to the leaves on a tree in the wind. He has since moved to New York and been collaborating with different artists on his film. This concert holds a particular importance to James as he traveled extensively in Tuva during his travels and survived a near-fatal car accident in the Altai Mountains.

Radik est né dans la région d’Ovur, en République de Touva, près de la frontière Mongole. Passionné de musique traditionelle, qu’il pratique depuis l’enfance, il apprend la technique du chant diphonique auprès de son grand-père.
İl étudie l’art du igil (vièle à pique) à l’institut Chyrgal-ool de Kyzyl, dont il sort diplôme.

Radik Tyulyush
Huun Huur Tu, Ces 4 chanteurs musiciens dont le nom signifie littéralement « Propulseur de soleil », perpétue les traditions vocales et instrumentales de Touva, petite région basée entre la Russie et la Mongolie. L’ambiance sonore des grandes steppes et des montagnes qui forment le paysage de Touva ont inspiré à ses habitants l’une des plus étonnantes musiques vocales de notre planète. La technique vocale dite « chant de Gorge » ou KHOOMEI permet au chanteur d’imiter ces sons ambiants. Par des mouvements précis des lèvres, de la langue, de la mâchoire, du palais et du larynx, les chanteurs produisent deux à trois notes à la fois laissant surgir des mélodies fascinantes. On y reconnaît le chant des oiseaux, un cheval au galop, le ruissellement de l’eau, le sifflement du vent… Le chant de gorge est intimement lié à des traditions animistes et à des rituels chamaniques.

ANCESTORS – Radik Tyulyush (Lyrics in Enghish) & Documentary film about Tuva
ANCESTORS
The Ene-Sai (ancient name of the Yene sei River), Sayan(mountains), and Tandim(mountains) are our ancient places.
The soft and soulful “sygyt” and “khöömei” are the ancient song of our people .
The ancestors of our “kargyraa” long ago became like gravestones on the steppe.
But among us are still people who sing kargyraa.
The ancestor of khöömei and sygyt long ago became like gravestones on the steppe.
But our hearts are proud(boil in our chest) that among us are still people who sing khöömei.

Album Review
Many people discovered the strange Central Asian magic of throat singing via Huun-Huur Tu. It’s not confined to Tuva, but that’s the home of these guys, one they mix with traditional instruments. In their now-lengthy career, they’ve tried many things (their last album was mixed with ambient electronica) but this time they’re very much back to their roots, and it serves them well. Although best known for their throat singing, which does feature on several cuts here including the short but eerily beautiful “Prayer,” it’s only one weapon in their arsenal. They’re also very adept musicians on their respective instruments and good singers in every way, and they demonstrate all the facets of their talent. It’s music that can seem alien (especially the throat singing) but there’s a deep beauty to it all. For all that it sounds ancient, inspired by the rhythms of horse’s hooves on the steppes, this is modern music, inspired by the tradition. It’s a wonderful soundscape.
Customer Reviews
Incredible sounds from humans

I’ve never realized such singing existed until I came across this band. I drift off into another realm when I listen to them.

Huun-Huur-Tu Konzert Offenburg/Deutschland
Datum: 26.05.2014
Zeit: 20:00 Uhr Altersbeschränkungen: All Ages
Offenburg/Deutschland
HUUN-HUUR-TU
Archaische Stimmwunder aus Tuva
Sasha Bapa, sein Bruder Sayan und zwei weitere Musiker, Kaigal-ool Khovalyg and Albert Kuvezin gründeten HUUN-HUUR-TU 1992, um sich auf die Präsentation von alten und vergessenen Liedern zu konzentrieren, wie Sasha es ausdrückt.
1993 spielte das Ensemble Huun-Huur-Tu erstmals in Amerika und erzielte binnen kurzer Zeit überwältigende Erfolge. Ihr “Khoomei” oder “Throat singing” – wie die Amerikaner sagen, der Obertongesang ist eine der faszinierendsten Vokaltechniken der Welt. Schnell erreichte das Ensemble einen “Kultstatus” in der neuen Welt, veröffentlichte dort mittlerweile sechs CD’s und erfreut sich weiter wachsender Popularität. Die Kultur der Tuvenen ist der mongolischen verwandt und spiegelt den Respekt vor der Natur wieder.
Huun-Huur-Tu spielte im Amerika u. a. zusammen mit dem Kronos Quartet, Frank Zappa – dem sie das Lied “Ching Söörtükchülerining Yryzy” (Song of the Caravan Drivers) gewidmet haben – , den Chieftains und L. Shankar.
Huun-Huur-Tu Stil
Unüberhörbar gibt es einen rituellen Charakter in dieser Musik, aber alle meditativen Tendenzen tilgt Huun-Huur-Tu durch eine stark rhythmische Ausrichtung. Zutiefst geheimnisvoll bleibt dieser faszinierende Obertongesang, der bis zu drei Melodien gleichzeitig erklingen lassen kann.
Während die Mitglieder von Huun-Huur-Tu sich dem Lernen alter Lieder und Melodien verschrieben haben, zeigen ihre Konzerte die Bedeutung von Tradition und Innovation. So ist es das Anliegen von Huun-Huur-Tu etwas Neues für Tuva: Traditionell wurde tuvenische Musik meist von Solisten vorgetragen und Musiker spezialisierten sich auf ein bestimmtes Genre oder einen Stil. Diese Genres und Stile wiederum haben ihren Ursprung in bestimmten sozialen Anlässen. Huun-Huur-Tu’s eklektische Aufführungen alter Lieder und Melodien dagegen bewegen sich zwischen allen Stühlen tuvenischen Musiklebens. “Wenn eine musikalische Tradition aufhört sich weiterzuentwickeln, ist sie zum Sterben verurteilt.“ Ted Levin
“Wir haben Lieder wiederentdeckt, die niemand mehr singt. Wir lernen von den alten Leuten, spielen sogar die tuvenische Internationale, die in den 30iger Jahren sehr populär war, als Tuva eine selbstständige Republik war (Tanna Tuva genannt). Der Text ist zwar sowjetisch, aber die Melodie kommt von einem tuvenischen Volkslied.” Sasha Bapa

A l’aube et au couchant , il darde de splendides et rasants rayons qui illuminent la terre d’une intense et lumineuse beauté que les tuvas nomment : Huun Huur Tu. C’est le nom que s’est donné le groupe de chanteurs dont les chants gutturaux et diphoniques célèbrent les mystères de leur harmonieuse nature et l’attachement des bergers à leurs vastes prairies. Soutenue par une technique étonnante, la musique traditionnelle des Tuvan est un art très singulier dans son expression, mais aussi un outil qui permet de calmer les animaux, de les domestiquer. Elle sert également d’appeau dans le chasse aux animaux sauvages. Cette musique fait appel à des instruments très singuliers (harpe juive, banjo à trois cordes, tambours de shama, shaker en rotule de mouton ou coccyx de taureau) mais surtout à une technique vocale dit chant de gorge ou Kloonei, qui fait la voix d’un instrument où les sons amplifient de manière surnaturelle les harmoniques en jouant sur la richesse et la diversité des timbres. Virtuoses ambassadeurs d’une culture empreinte de spiritualité, où la nature dialogue avec l’âme, le groupe Huun Huur Tu nous convient à un fabuleux voyage dans les confins du monde et nous offre un prodigieux et rare moment musical

THE STORY BEHİND ANCESTORS CALL
ANCESTORS
The Ene-Sai (ancient name of the Yene sei River), Sayan(mountains), and Tandim(mountains) are our ancient places.
The soft and soulful “sygyt” and “khöömei” are the ancient song of our people .
The ancestors of our “kargyraa” long ago became like gravestones on the steppe.
But among us are still people who sing kargyraa.
The ancestor of khöömei and sygyt long ago became like gravestones on the steppe.
But our hearts are proud(boil in our chest) that among us are still people who sing khöömei.

From the independent republic of Tuva, bordering Mongolia, Huun Huur Tu performs an ear-twisting vocal technique called Khöömei. In this style, a single vocalist produces two or three notes simultaneously, often a low drone along with a high-pitched whistle. Accompanied by traditional string and percussion instruments, the four-member ensemble sings rhythmic songs that capture the magic of the Siberian steppe.

Тувинская группа Хуун-Хуур-Ту на протяжении многих лет является, безусловно, самым известным в мире музыкальным проектом всего бывшего СССР (не считая исполнителей классической музыки и поп-дуэта “Тату”).
Музыка Хуун-Хуур-Ту – уникальная, магическая, вобравшая в себя все наследие тувинского фольклора, традиции горлового пения, и развивающая это наследие. Группа прочно входит в элиту world music планеты. С 1993 года группа выступила практически на всех крупнейших фестивалях world music, джаза и даже рок-музыки, дала около тысячи концертов на всех континентах, совершила 16 концертных туров по США и Канаде, множество раз выступала во всех странах Европы, Японии, Австралии, Мексике, Гонконге, Сингапуре, Малайзии. В мире пользуются популярностью 9 альбомов группы, а также более десятка совместных работ
Хуун-Хуур-Ту с другими музыкантами. Группа записывалась и выступала с выдающимися музыкантами самых различных жанров, такими как Stevie Wonder, Frank Zappa, Ry Cooder, Kronos Quartet, Mickey Heart and Bob Weir (Greatful Dead), Johnny “Guitar”Watson, Shankar, Trilok Gurtu, Fun-Da-Mental, Bulgarian Voices Angelite и др.
Во всех известных музыкальных энциклопедиях Хуун-Хуур-Ту называется самым выдающимся музыкальным явлением России за последнее десятилетие.
В 2012 году группа номинирована на BBC World Music Award – самую престижную в мире ежегодную награду в сфере этно-музыки.
Zvuki.ru о юбилейном концерте Хуун Хуур Ту:
“Они не делали тайны или шоу из своего появления: прошли при полном освещении на свои места, одетые в красивые однотонные халаты и с необычными инструментами в руках. Однако начало выступления обрушилось на слушателей в один миг, отрезая все, что было раньше, и все, что было вокруг. В одну секунду свет погас, а четверо музыкантов, закрыв глаза, с силой запели “Молитву”, или “Prayer”, как она обычно называется на дисках ХХТ. Эта вещь исполняется а-капелла, только четыре странных потока звука, в которых не сразу узнается человеческий голос. Это было похоже на мгновенное перемещение во времени и пространстве. Хуун-Хуур-Ту вбросили нас, слушателей, в свой мир, и там уже принялись за нас основательно.
Весь секрет ХХТ – вовсе не в том, что они исполняют “этническую музыку” и занимаются горловым пением. Чепарухин сказал перед концертом, что группа пытается не только возрождать национальную музыку, но и развивать ее естественным для нее образом. Он был абсолютно прав. Музыка ХХТ живая; невероятно живым было и их выступление. Оно одновременно очень странно, очень непривычно: эти голоса, эти инструменты, которые так безыскусно и так плавно гудят и поют, их музыка, гипнотически повторяющаяся, как бесконечные повороты колеса едущей по степи телеги, с ритмичной поступью коня, с такими простыми и чистыми эмоциями, от каких мы давно отвыкли. Все шоу очень естественно, и в этом – особая заслуга ХХТ. Они – не ботаники, выкладывающие перед нами засушенные листки из музыкального гербария; они не актеры, изображающие из себя давно мертвых персонажей. В них не чувствуется и бездумного отрицания текущей даты на календаре; они принимают и понимают, что время изменилось. Однако при всем том они ухитряются сохранить абсолютно живой (и не обезображенной) многовековую музыкальную традицию и позволить слушателю разделить эту другую жизнь, прикоснуться к ней – потому что искренне верят в нее сами. Это катарсис, честное слово.
В группе четыре человека, и каждый из них способен один составить целое шоу. Алексей Сарыглар отвечает за ударные, которые, кстати, изготавливает для себя сам. Поразительно, какие сложные и богатые ритмы можно извлечь из одного большого барабана с несколькими дополнительными приспособлениями вроде “репродуктивных органов быка с овечьими косточками внутри” (цит. А. Чепарухин). Алексей, как и все члены группы, способен также играть на струнных и не хуже остальных владеет искусством горлового пения. Он создает основательное, солидное впечатление, какое и должен оставлять тот, кто заведует ритмом. Андрей Монгуш – самый молодой участник группы; в состав ХХТ он входит только полтора года. Тем не менее он, со своей скорее даже китайской, чем тувинской внешностью, управляется с целым рядом обязанностей: от простого поддержания ритма до сложных сольных номеров; на него возложена значительная часть вокальных партий, особенно дополнительных. По свидетельству его коллег, он также активно участвует в написании нового материала.
С аудиторией обычно общается Саян Бапа, один из двух оставшихся с самого начала основателей группы (вместе с Кайгал-Оолом Ховалыгом). У него очаровательный трудноуловимый акцент, и он предваряет каждую песню коротким емким пояснением (почти в каждой песне так или иначе поется о конях… на то тувинцы и кочевники). Основной его обязанностью, однако, является игра на струнном дошпулууре, и со своим обтянутым змеиной кожей инструментом он исполняет партии, изумляющие подчас своей сложностью.
Наконец, о Кайгал-Ооле Ховалыге Саян сказал, что тот для группы – старейшина. И Ховалыг, играющий большей частью на игиле (такой смычковый струнный), а также вместе с Андреем ведущий основную часть вокальных партий, действительно излучает несуетное, уверенное спокойствие, которое и должно исходить от старейшины – не столь важно, группы или рода.
Первую половину сета ХХТ в основном следовали трек-листу своего диска Live 1, не отклоняясь от него где-то до “Kongurey” и “Song of the Caravan Drivers”. Стоит с удовольствием отметить, что звук на концерте был просто идеальный, а сами музыканты воспроизводили студийные версии своих композиций точнее, чем способны это делать многие современные рок-музыканты. Ударную силу репертуара группы составляют бодрые среднетемповые номера в духе “Oske Cherde”; однако ХХТ умело разнообразили свою программу. Прозвучала и жемчужина их репертуара, меланхоличная “Kongurey”, где Саян отложил дошпулуур и взялся за гитару; и кое-что без аккомпанемента; и изящная баллада в сольном исполнении Андрея. Полтора часа (чуть меньше) выступления Хуун-Хуур-Ту пролетели не то, чтобы незаметно, но безо всякого напряжения для слушателя. Пару раз им подносили цветы, а в какой-то момент тувинский юноша-зритель даже сказал небольшую речь, путаясь в словах от волнения. Смеха это не вызвало – зал разделял его эмоции.”
