Pure Nature Music presents a deep dive into the art of Tuvan throat singing with the renowned musicians of Chirgilchin. Immerse yourself in the Tuvan culture for three days of learning Tuvan music from the masters.
This three-day program is designed to introduce and inspire musicians to the different styles of Tuvan throat singing and traditional instruments. Set in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains, the camp will be an opportunity to work closely with the members of Chirgilchin. Yuliyana Krivoshapkina will also be teaching the Yakutian Khomus.
Igor Koshkendey, Aidysmaa Koshkendey, Mongun-ool Ondar, and Aidyn Byrtaan-ool are world-renowned musicians who have been performing together since 1996. The workshop will consist of small-group instruction with each of the members, and students will have the opportunity to rotate instructors and focus on different styles of throat singing. Students will also learn basic techniques on traditional Tuvan instruments like the igil and doshpoulour. Each day will conclude with a mini-concert featuring students and instructors performing together.
Yuliyana is a virtuoso in the art of the khomus, the national instrument of the Sakha Republic. It functions much like a Jew’s harp, but differs in several respects. A conventional Jew’s harp is limited in range, volume, and pitch. The khomus is loud and strikingly expansive in range. Yuliyana’s skill allows her to play sounds across about three octaves. She was the winner of the Ethnic Sound category in the Discovery International Music Pop Festival in Varna, Bulgaria. Yuliyana has performed in Korea, France, Germany, Belgium, USA, Japan, China, Thailand, Holland, Norway, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, and Turkmenistan. Her music draws on the powers of Nature and the wisdom and traditions of the Yakut people to portray the timeless relationship between Man and the Universe.
