A LEGEND OF THE IGIL
A long time ago there was Ösküs-ool, who lived with his aged father and whose entire wealth consisted of three goats. Early in the spring, one of the noyon old mares foaled and died of exhaustion. The noyon ordered the foal to be taken to the steppe and thrown to the wolves, saying that losing one foal wasn’t going to make him poor. Ösküs-ool took pity on the foal, taking him as his own and feeding him on the milk of his own goats. The foal grew up to be a wonderful grey racer with a white star on his head. In the races Ösküs-ool’s horse began to beat all the noyon’s horses and won fame throughout Tuva. Out of hatred and spite the noyon ordered his men to kill Ösküs-ool’s horse, and they drove her over a high cliff.
Ösküs-ool, not finding his beloved horse anywhere, passed out from fatigue, dreaming of his horse who spoke to him with human voice. ” You will find my remains at the bottom of great cliff. Hang my skull on an old larch tree, the wood of which you will use to make musical instrument, and its face ill be the skin of my muzzle, and its strings will be of the hair of my tail. When you begin to play on this instrument, my double will come to you from the upper( heavenly ) kingdom.” Ösküs-ool did all this as his horse had said in the dream and began to play. He remembered his horse, how was a small little foal and how they played together, he remembered how they won the races, and he played and wept, and it was as if the instrument wept together with him. Ösküs-ool become angry thinking of the evil noyon, and all of his longing and anger found reflection in his playing, and that’s why it is said that the igil is such a complex instrument, with such great expressive possibilities.
Öksüs-ool played for a long time, and the people listened for a long time and laughed and cried together with him as they listened. Suddenly on top of a high mountain the clouds parted and there came down from the heavens a beautiful grey foal – an exact copy of his horse, and he wasn’t alone but with him was an entire herd of black and white horses.
From them on, so they say, Tuvans do not throw the skull of a horse on the ground, but always hang it on a tree. This tradition was strongly preserved in Tuva until the 40s.

March 22th – WroclawHuun-Huur-Tu (Tuvan: Хүн Хүртү Khün Khürtü, Russian: Хуун-Хуур-Ту) is a music group from Tuva, a Russian Federation republic situated on the Mongolian border.
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.

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.

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.”
Hey, what’s that sound: THROAT SİNGİNG
Hey, what’s that sound: Throat singing
A droning, pulverising sound of shamanic origin, this is ancient soul music from the east
What is it? A catch-all term covering different disciplines of extreme vocal technique from around the world, often recognised as a low, pulverising, drone-growl that western ears sometimes interpret as “scary”. But the history behind the throat singing traditions of Inuit tribes and the people of Siberia has strong cultural significance, and the overlapping, oscillating vocal tones (several different notes are produced in the mouth of one singer simultaneously) can be transcendent and beautiful.
Who uses it?
How does it work?
Where does it come from?
