Ayan-ool Sam - Vocals

Bady-Dorzhu Ondar - Vocals, doshpuulur
A Beehive Field Recording
Captured live at Folk Alliance International in Montréal QC, 2019
This song is an old Tuvan tune re-worked by Alash, comparing the singer’s voice to birds and celebrating the awesomeness of Tuvan music in general.
Alash are performing in their native Tuvan in a style called “throat singing“ which is a remarkable technique for singing multiple pitches at the same time.
The Ensemble is known internationally for their mastery of both Tuvan throat singing and traditional Tuvan instruments like the doshpuulur seen here.
