Khakassia is a region in Russia. The Khakas people are Turkic, and their culture, including music, has some similarities to the culture of Tuva, a neighboring region in Central Asia. Like Tuva, throat-singing is practiced in Khakassia, often accompanied by a two-stringed instrument called the khomys. Traditional Music Channel is for everyone who has a passion for music. Music is an expression of human creativity. UNESCO reports that among all the performing arts, music is the most universal and is found in every society, most often as an integral part of other performing art forms and other domains of intangible cultural heritage. Traditional forms of music are considered carriers of cultural heritage because they represent expressions and traditions transferred through generations of a community. With recordings from more than hundred nations our collection of traditional music offers a staggering diversity of our humanity. Traditional Music Channel © All Rights Reserved
