The Alash Ensemble are Tuvan throat singers, known for their ability to sing in multiple pitches at the same time. The members of Alash are masters of many Tuvan instruments, but also include elements of western music into their songs to create their own unique sound. Home for the musicians of Alash is the Republic of Tuva, which sits between Siberia and Mongolia. Preserving the Tuvan culture and musical heritage remains important to Alash members Bady-Dorzhu Ondar, Ayan-ool Sam, and Ayan Shirizhi, who were all trained in traditional Tuvan music from a young age.
