Description

Buryat vocalist Namgar Lkhasaranova leads the ensemble that takes her name, accompanied on traditional instruments from Buryat and Mongolian tradition. The repertoire of Namgar consists of the songs and melodies, embracing the world of sounds as big as from the Lake Baikal in the East of Russia to the Great Wall in China, from the songs of shamanist gatherings of Siberia to celebration songs you might hear at a midsummer fest in Mongolia to exquisite melodies from Inner Mongolia. Looking like characters from the ancient legends of Asia on stage, the group delivers the music that is both exotic and easily accessible.

Namgar, which in translation from Buryat means "white cloud" - the Moscow-Ulan-Ude musical group created in 2001. The group performs traditional music and songs of Buryats and Mongols, as well as their own interpretations of the folklore of Mongolian peoples. These are ancient legends of a brave tribe of Buryats, great warriors and fearless hunters. In the repertoire of Namgar there are Buryat dance songs (Nereen and Yohor), ring game songs, Buryat lingering songs, etc.

The key participants are Namgar Lhasaranova (vocals) and Evgeniy Zolotarev - changza (three-stringed lute, covered with snake skin and featuring a clear, short sound.). For a considerable time the group consisted of four members: N. Lhasaranova, E. Zolotarev, J. Urantugs (Mongolia) - yataga (Far Eastern zither), vocal and H. Altangarel (Mongolia) - morin huur, singing, throat singing. From 2003 to 2008, the composition of the group changed significantly.

Hathar's album was recorded in 2003. It included traditional Buryat songs and choral (songs around the fire). The album is sustained in the traditional style, however, some influence of modern music can be heard on the parties of percussion and changza.
