Chirgilchin is one of the best known Tuvan groups today. Performing only traditional Tuvan songs, their melodies capture the spirit of Tuva, while also creating a timeless connection to the land, which allows the audiences to go to places they dream of. A Chirgilchin performance immerses the listener into the Tuvan world of steppes, horses, and nomadic life. The sound is a fusion of the noises of nature and the deepest tones of the human voice, and brings forth the memories of countless generations of the Tuvan people. The group has been perfecting this sound for over ten years. They have toured in various cities across the globe. They have won numberous awards, including Best Ensemble at the 2008 International Throat Singing Competition in Tuva. Group member Aldar Tamdyn, who crafts the instruments played by the group, also won Best Instrument Maker.

Chirgilchin would like to bring to your attention this new album. All of these songs are traditional, but this album was created as an experiment. While the lyrics still tell ancient stories of Tuvan folklore, several songs were performed in a different, more modern style.
