The traditional music of the Tuvan and Sakha people is deeply tied to the natural landscape of southern Siberia and the belief that spirits manifest through environmental sounds. Between 1995 and 1998, researchers captured unique field recordings directly on site: in canyons, caves, creek beds, and on horseback across the open grasslands. Master musicians and throat singing practitioners engage in an acoustic dialogue with their natural surroundings, imitating and interacting with ambient wildlife and topography. Accompanied by extensive ethnographic notes, archival photos, and discographies, this document highlights the deep connection between Siberian folk, shamanic music, and world music with the regional environment.
