AltaiKAI: Throat-singers of Acred Altai
T1377076408
Formed by Urmat Yntaev to fight the threats to indigenous Altaian traditions and their sacred land in central Asia, AltaiKAI's music is deeply influenced by the mighty Altai Mountains, the 'navel' of their universe. Combining 'kai' throat-singing (notes fattened by ethereal overtones and undertones) with sounds of the natural world, a range of traditional instruments and their own songs, this prize-winning five-piece group evokes the heroes, spiritual beliefs and landscape of the herders and hunters of Altai.
