October 2007Traditionally, throat singing used to be a male only preserve in Siberia. But Shonchulai Choodu has well and truly broken that taboo. She's been practising since she was five or six years old. "When I was little, going out and herding the sheep I would sing for the nature around me", Sonchulai tells Griffiths. When she appeared at the annual music festival in the eastern city of Chadan Shonchulai Choodo mesmerised the crowd. Among those mightily impressed was master throat singer, Vladimir Oidoopaa, "I am especially amazed when women sing. How is that? Such sounds from a woman's throat!" Oidoopaa struggled during the Soviet era when, he says, throat singing was regarded as an act of "dissent" He defied government bans for the most powerful of reasons. "Throat singing prevents our nation from dying, spiritually.""To me, throat singing means power and philosophy, love for my nation, love for my people, to respect other opinions and to be tolerant of different religions. "

This is one of the most inspiring and truly mesmeric videos I have witnessed on YT. At points i was near weeping and overwhelmed with the beauty of this sound.

just look at videos around youtube. thats how i learned and tons of practice. and you will most likely annoy everyone around you when you are learning. my dad still mocks me whenever i do it. lol

it hurts at first when you are first starting to do it, dont give up, keep practicing, but when you ar learning practice a few minutes a day and as you get better and better you can practice for longer periods of time. Take it slow and dont overdo it at first , but definitly dont give up :)
