  • In this section of our Music of World Cultures course well be exploring the continent

  • of Asia. Now, Asia is a vast area to study, especially since there are about 4 billion

  • people living there within 48 different countries. With that in mind, well take a look at

  • three different regions within Asia and examine the music and people from those regions.

  • Within the continent of Asia we will begin this journey through the Republic of Tuva,

  • which is located in the centre of the continent, and is part of the Russian Federation. Youll

  • hear some unusual sounds, often referred to asthroat singing�. This method of producing

  • sound goes beyond entertainment and has been proven useful in calling livestock and in

  • human communication in a very mountainous region.

  • After Tuva, well then journey to Tibet to visit some Buddhist monks as they perform

  • traditional chant. Like the throat singers of Tuva, some of the Tibetan Buddhist chant

  • performed by monks can be quite unusual sounding. At times, one singer can produce two notes

  • simultaneously, called vocal overtones. In our case study video, youll probably notice

  • their brightly colored garments.

  • And in our last region, well look at mainland China and some instrumental music. The music

  • here tends to be based a five note or pentatonic scale. So, instead of do re mi fa so la ti

  • do, as found our Western tradition, the Chinese traditional music is slightly different. Two

  • of the more common folk instruments include the Erhu, a two stringed fiddle, and the Zheng,

  • which is oftn called a Chinese Zither, or Chinese Harp with it�s many strings.
