With Carole Pegg.

An ensemble of Mongolian musicians Performs long songs, xoomii (overtone) singing, and solos on the horse-head fiddle and mouth-harps.

[Article] R3 According to myth, the Mongolian horse-head fiddle was made from the bones, skull and hair of the horse. In fact the instrument, once made of wood and the skin of baby goat or camel, is now made completely of wood. It symbolises the importance of the horse in the national culture: the animal is essential for transport and fermented mare's milk is a common drink. The instrument is used to accompany overtone singing and long songs - two vocal forms, like the fiddle, peculiar to Mongolia. An indigenous ensemble performs in Music from the Altai Mountains (5.00pm)
