Do Women Throat Sing?

Tuva News

Tyva Kyzy is about to arrive in the US

Tuva Trader is sponsoring Tyva Kyzy the only all-women Tuvan Throat Singing and traditional folk ensemble.

This extraordinary group is beginning a month long west coast US tour after 2 years of planning, dreaming and lot’s of hard work. As international popularity of Tuvan music has grown over the last decade and a half many have asked "do women throat sing?" We are very happy that people will now hear for themselves and we will do our best to bring the group to other areas for years to come. The group will also release their first CD very soon.

Tyva Kyzy will be in Washington State between October 1st and 15th, performing a number of concerts around the Puget Sound and Olympic Peninsula before heading south to Portland, then the Bay Area and Santa Cruz.

The full tour schedule, tour posters brochures and links to the Tyva Kyzy website are available from the Tuva Trader home page. The group will also be doing some radio and print interviews, performances and a workshop or two. Please help to spread the word about the Tyva Kyzy west coast US tour to your friends in these areas: Seattle, Olympic Peninsula, Olympia, Portland, Berkeley, San Francisco and Santa Cruz.

I saw their last performance in the Tunnel with Steve Sklar singing his wonderful khoomei. It was a great experience! Check out Steves site from time to time for great resources. His khoomei lessons and workshops come with my very high recommendation!
