Haus des Rundfunks Huun Huur Tu at RBB‐ Sendesaal
Berlin, Haus des Rundfunks — Großer RBB‐ Sendesaal
About the Event
The masters of throat and overtone singing are on tour again and will be presenting their program at the Haus des Rundfunks — Großer Sendesaal rbb. Each time, the music with its ritual character and strong rhythms delights every audience member.
Tuvinian throat singing and overtone singing is one of the most fascinating vocal techniques in the world, and HUUN‐HUUR‐TU are masters of the various styles. There is an unmistakable ritual character to this music, but HUUN‐HUUR‐TU contrast all meditative tendencies with a strong rhythmic orientation.
This fascinating overtone singing, which can produce up to 3 melodies simultaneously, remains deeply mysterious. Traditionally, Tuvan music was mostly performed by soloists, and musicians specialized in a particular genre or style. These genres and styles in turn have their origins in certain social occasions. HUUN‐HUUR‐TUs, eclectic performances of old songs and melodies as a group and accompanied by instruments, thus move between all elements of Tuvan musical life. Fascinating, strange, but at the same time contemporary and modern.
