Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded at 6T4K Studios in Edinburgh in August 1998, the group's fourth album is the first to add non Tuvan instruments, with Mary Macmaster's harp, Guy Nicholson's tabla and Martyn Bennett's Scottish smallpipes around the quartet's throat singing. It also weaves in recordings of Kaigal-ool Khovalyg and Anatoli Kuular singing on horseback on the Tuvan grasslands.
