Unreal: Mongolian Throat Singing

nickvivion.net | My sister told me that I HAD TO check out Mongolian Throat Singing when I was in Mongolia. I had no idea what to expect. What I found was a strong form of music, an unbelievable use of the vocal chords to create sound vibrations. You could literally feel them in your chest!
Mongolia is a vast, empty space - the least densely populated place in the world. And yet this music is so full, deep and rich. It is haunting hearing it boom out into the nothingness.

    Steven Lee U're wrong. However the korean and mongolian languages sound similar, this does not mean that mongols came from korea. Mongolian, Turkish, Korean and Japanese languages are included in the Altaic Language group. Altaic means "of the Altai Mountain". The mountain is located in the western Mongolia, too far away from korea.

    shine Well Korea has pretty good amounts of Mongolian genetics. Around 14% Koreans possess the C3 Mongolic y-DNA marker. In comparison, it is found only 5% in South China and Japan. The Mongol C3 marker is quite one of the rares from Asia. Most is found in Mongolia, Inner Mongolia and Buryats as well as other Siberian natives.

    Mongolian throat singing reminds me of the instrument digeridoo. The deep tone of the song on KZread is wonderful to listen to. It’s amazing to hear a vocal instrument that resembles a real instrument. The man on the video goes into a lot of detail how his heritage runs deep with this talent. The amount of time he spends practicing his talent has to be a full time job of care. I’m glad to see the man train others with his talent so the tradition can move on from generation to generation.

    not exactly, the whistling sound is made by putting your tongue just behind your upper teeth and closing your soft palate while singing sustaining note. You change the pitch by moving your tongue and lips

    I will do opposite and explain it the simplest way possible. Have you ever watched South Park? There was a guy called Ned, and he was speaking with a special voice box. We are on yt, so just type "southpark ned" and you will know what I am talking about. This kind of voice is exact basis of tuvan throat singing. While doing "ned's voice" put your tongue just like you were saying letter "L" and stop it while it will touch the palate. Try to "squeeze" your voice between your tongue and palate (tongue touching it the whole time). That is basically it, it is not easy to catch, you will have to try for at least few days before you will make any kind of clear overtone. You are modulating the overtone by moving your tongue a little front or back. Hope you will find this useful ;)

I used to have lots of fun with it back then, thought it sounded cool, yet goofy, since I had never heard of such a thing before and thought it was just something strange that I was able to do....Although, I cannot do it now.....Yes, I can still sound like this gentleman does in the beginning with ease. But can no longer do the harmony at the same time........Hmmmmmm

    The throat singing was like something I had never heard before. As a westerner, I would have never thought such a sound was capable from a human mouth, both in respect to the grumble and the whistle. It provides a unique flip of the customary instrumental rhythm and the human vocal pitches and overall melody. The morin khuur, the horsehead fiddle, is complimented and honored through the use of the throat singing. Fascinating!

    With the complexities of hoomli featuring both throat and lip movements, and sounds eminating from the nose, throat and chest, I am not surprised that this type of musical talent is “very selective” as the man in the video states. I have a hard time patting my head and rubbing my belly at the same time, much less coordinating all of these functions AND playing an instrument with two hands. It is hard for me to pick out all the different parts of the sound, so I think I would have to be less of a listening novice to do so. The hoomli throat singing is truly an unreal sound - it sounds like it is coming from an electronic vocal box of some sorts. The whistling part that started around 4:40 was my favorite.

    I actually think it is a very strange and awkward sounding language. It has many breathy consonants and words can have up to 3 consonants per syllable. I personally find the turkic languages the most beautiful of all of the Altaic languages, and in fact I believe the Tuvans (a group of turkic peoples) were the inventors of throat singing (but I am not totally sure). I know they are at least famous for it. But for your info if you want to find a recording of turkic language, the 3 you might be able to find are Azeri, Turkish, and Kazakh.

    4:34 Wow. I have wanted to know what instrument made this beautiful whistle sound for a long time. And I finally, I discover that it's a whistle, just two lips with air and nothing more! That is incredible.

    It makes so much sense that this type of singing would use differing methodologies for the place where the voice is coming from (bottom and top of throat, nasal sounds, whistling, chest whistling). The sound of the voice is at times overpowering, so I didn't expect some of the quicker vocal changes that Sumiyabazar accomplished. Trying to contextualize this version of singing is so different from the more Westernized vocal methods I was taught growing up, but the sound is so interesting I'll have to look into the technical methods of the vocal chords for it!

    5/5, man! Throat singing is a beatiful skill from an ancient culture, and it tells us so much about the human body-mind unity. Good for you that you've had the opportunity to visit those marvellous places, I hope one day I'll do the same.

    The slight hammer on 'pulse' he plays on the second string (not the drone string) around 2:30 sounds very much like how he talks, with that preceding 'click' sound that comes before certain consonants he pronounces. What a wonderful language, so rhythmic!

    It was very fascinating to watch this video. The timbre of the singer's voice is very unlike most kinds of music I've ever heard. I think it's especially interesting that hoomlii singers first have to learn how to play the marin whoor to accompany themselves. The wide variety of sounds that hoomlii utilizes are strikingly different, from the low, rough tones of the throat singing to the higher whistling that almost sounds like wind in trees. The 6 sounds presented here are a cool example of the different timbres that can be used to make up vocal ensembles for hoomlii, and of how diverse an instrument the voice can be.

    I'm a huge fan of throat singing- the Tuvan and Mongolian type as well as north american Inuit throat singing. The "whistling" tones in the Tuvan type is really amazing but the sounds of the Inuit style are amazing as well and I love the intimacy between the 2 women that traditionally hold arms and are face to face while throat singing. In both styles I can really hear the culture- the rhythm of the horses and other natural sounds in Tuvan and in Inuit style there is a whole array of rhythms and sounds of Nature.

I love their culter and music, i bought a Morin Khuur in Ulaanbataar from a maker and now I'm trying to learn throat singing as well,. this i have to say is very hard to master,, you must have passion in your heart for this music, for it is truly from only the beautiful land and people of Mongolia........sing it well and your heart and soul will sing too.
