Huun Huur Tu are traditional throat singers from the Siberian nation of Tuva. They create two and sometimes three harmonic notes at the same time, and their songs depict the landscape of steppes, mountains and forests of their home.

Workshop performance (1 of 3) - the "happy horse" song (I don't know its real name!) which includes examples of the Sygyt (whistling), Kargyraa (deep undertone) and Khoomei (mid-range) techniques. But mostly it's a lovely happy song about horses.
