Tuvan traditional music has won itself a special place in the music world. First of all, it is characterized by highly developed art of overtone singing. It is easy to see the relation of it to overtone singing used in Tibetan Buddhism, while some scholars point that this manner of sound creation dates back to the first attempts of mankind to speak. It is these attempts that have become extinct in most of the world but still live on as geographically limited heritage, which has only regained its legacy in the past few years.
Overtone singing was a symbol of Tuvan identity from the first half of 20th century at the very latest. But Tuvans boast not only the widespread ability to overtone-sing. It is also a highly developed art which includes at least 3 major genres (sygyt, khoomei, and kargyraa) and several common subgenres, as well as popular personal styles that become nationally popular due to the modern media like tapes or radio waves, that confer every new development of this art onto the nomadic farmers or local artists throughout the mountainous republic much faster than a celebrated singer is able himself. |
