Niall Mc Guigan - Althai Magtaal

To download the album - During my MA in Ethnomusicology I had the opportunity to learn Khoomii singing (Mongolian throat singing). The song is traditionally a praise song to the Altai Mountains in Mongolia. The version that I have recorded was arranged by my teacher Michael Ormiston. Michael learned Mongolian throat singing in Mongolia through traditional means and developed his own method of teaching the technique to western students. Backing vocals - Clare Foley, Kelly Redmond, Julianne Reel Bass guitar - Paul Mc Cabe Double bass - Martin Og McAllister Drums & percussion - Ronan Morgan Lead guitar - Gerry Black
