Steve Sklar

Steve Sklar is the leading performer and teacher of khoomei, or Tuvan Throat-Singing in the west. Rather than focus on the simpler western overtone singing, he has mastered the traditional Tuvan techniques, and developed unique methods for teaching throat-singing, and the Tibetan low, chordal chant voice. He has for several years been associated with the Tuvan master ensemble, Huun-Huur-Tu: " class="external">http://www.huunhuurtu.com

He runs the comprehensive, premier throat-harmonic-overtone singing site, http://khoomei.com where enthusiasts, or Khoo-Maniacs can download video lessons, and is the founder of the International Association for Harmonic singing. He also performs with the ensembles Big Sky: http://www.bigskyrocks.com (guitarist, throat-singer, producer, engineer) and the Overtone Orchestra(throat-singing, didgeridoo, percussion).

There are MP3s, QT movies, photos and articles by Sklar at these 2 web sites.
