We are very excited about this rare opportunity to hear master throat singer, musician and luthier Batsükh Dorj all the way from the foothills of the upper Altai mountains, Mongolia. This remarkable musician perfectly masters the different throat singing styles typical of the Tuvans: khöömei (contracted throat singing), sygyt (whistled throat singing), kargyraa (deep throat singing), ezenggileer (a pulsating style, attempting to mimic the rhythms of horseback riding.), and borbangnadyr (a trill reminiscent of birds and travelling brooks, made by rapid movements of the tongue and lips.). Accompanied by Johanni Curtet, specialist in throat-singing in the West who arranged and produced his first album. Batsükh sings us about his nomadic culture through the mountains notably by imitating the rhythms of horses and the flow of water.
“A rare and complete artist and composer who brings a major contribution to his musical tradition”
Together they play ‘Altai blues’ a sound that is an encounter between a Tuvan musician and a French researcher-musician united by the art of khöömei (throat singing). Together they play a timeless music, in tribute to our ancestors.
FRIDAY 18TH OCTOBER | 7PM | £12 / £9 PWYC (limited tickets available)
