Dear Friends Thank you for your interest to our music. Last summer we held a throat singing camp in Tuva. We had 14 students from around the world - 8 of them were from the US, 2 from Australia 2 from Denmark, 1 from France, 1 from England. After arriving in Tuva, the students spent 1 week in Kyzyl, the capital city. They were able to see many tourist attractions, see a Tuvan shaman, and attend the Naadym - National Harvest Celebration. The students then went on to spend 1 week in the deep taiga, with members of the Tuvan throat singing group Chirgilchin, learning various styles of throat singing, traditional Tuvan instruments, as well as the Tuvan language. This summer, we are trying to get 2 groups to go to Tuva again, in either June or July. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Please check our photos made by Russell Roesner - our student. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bertdanger/sets/72157602427847575/ Thank you Alexander www.purenaturemusic.com www.chirgilchin.com
