Thread Name: Inuit (eskimo) throat singing
Subject: RE: Inuit (eskimo) throat singing
I've seen a couple of different throat singing groups-- it's really a magical kind of music. The most recent was a duo called Nukariik, who I saw at the Folk Alliance Canada Conference in Montreal last November. They were excellent performers and also shared a lot of information about how throat singing is done, where the different songs come from, and Inuit culture in general.

Their website is at www.nukariik.ca/ and has information about throat singing and some examples to listen to and watch.
