Experience the wonder of sound from Tuva

For a long while now I’ve been wowing party crowds with my “didgeridoo” impression.  What I’ve been trying to do, though, is the mysterious and fantastic Tuvan throat singing.  Tuva is a region of Russia bordering Mongolia, mountainous and covered by steppe.  The people there connect all natural things with the spirit and hold a special affection for the sounds things make.  It is said that the sound of a waterfall was the source of the singing and its use of overtones.  These singers are able to make chords and tones with their voices that I could only dream of.
