Anda Union, from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, has stunned audiences worldwide for over 20 years. This dynamic ensemble’s mission is to preserve and revitalize the endangered cultural heritage of the steppe. They weave together haunting longsong, resonant throat singing, and instrumental mastery on horse-head fiddles, two-stringed lutes, flutes, and percussion. The sound is at once ancient and contemporary evoking the vastness of the grasslands and the rhythms of horseback life.
AnDa Union
AnDa Union play a unique style of Mongolian music. The band all trained in traditional Mongolian music from a young age, and are accomplished singers, moving fluently from hoomai, the guttural throat song, to the clear long notes of ortinduu, long-song. They play many instruments including the morin huur, the maodun chaoer, a three-holed flute, as well as Mongolian versions of the lute, and mouth harp. Mongols have a strong musical tradition that is passed from generation to generation. The morin huur, or horse head fiddle, pays homage to the most important animal in the Mongol culture; almost all houses have one hanging in the hallway. AnDa Union are bound by a mission to promote the essence of this music to the world.
