Egschiglen

美麗謠曲樂隊 蒙古團隊Egschiglen（為“美麗的歌謠”），是蒙古一支盛名遠播的樂隊，始建于1991年。核心成員由4個烏蘭巴托音樂學(xué)院的學(xué)生組成，近年在歐洲瘋狂走紅。西方世界對這支發(fā)聲獨特，韻律幽遠的蒙古團隊極為關(guān)注。 樂隊嘗試新的聲音實驗，比如馬頭琴、揚琴、貝司和二弦樂器的運用，試圖在多樣的音樂文化中找到一種獨特的平衡。樂隊男主唱阿木圖辛·巴薩多吉乃是當代樂壇第一呼麥男歌者。其吐吶、中氣、神韻、雙聲換軌、音高幻變，是真正屬于蒙古利亞的人聲，足以唱穿西伯利亞、中亞大草原，飛躍里海、黑海、高加索，直達中歐的阿爾卑斯山。無怪乎數(shù)年前跨歐亞大陸的天山─瑞士特快車也計劃力邀他們參與演出。 蒙古國幅員遼闊，從南部的茫茫草原島戈壁沙漠，從白雪皚皚的阿拉泰河和杭蓋流出的清澈河水穿越森林注入平原，他們的歌聲正是贊美他們的淵源流長的游牧文化及其與自然的和諧關(guān)系，贊美他們的馬匹、駱駝和牛羊。蒙古音樂的呼吸深長悠遠，是他們從自然中獲得的生命力量。 
Egschiglen are a Mongolian Folk band, formed in Ulan Bator in 1991. In English Egschiglen means "Beautiful Melody", and they are one of very few traditional Mongolian bands to have become popular in the rest of the World. Right from the beginning, Egschiglen set the focus of their artistic work on contemporary music. They systematically explored the sound dimensions of works by classical-modernist Mongolian composers, using traditional instruments from Mongolia and Central Asian including the morin khuur (a violin with two strings made of horse hair), tobshuur (a lute symbolizing a swan's throat as neck), joochin, bass, percussion and singing techniques like khöömii throat singing. Their music is characterized by the delicacy and transparency of chamber music, but also by its deeply natural, compelling force. In Egschiglen’s performances, tunes from shamanist or Buddhist tradition, which are common in Central Asia, impress through their diversity of expression and their intricate arrangements. The musicians also experiment with balancing acts between diverse cultures: in the course of the years, Egschiglen participated in a number of cooperation projects with musicians from various cultural areas. Furthermore, in a relaxed attitude, they present the latest finds from their adopted home, Franconia: traditional song material from the Altmühl valley, arranged as a Mongolian khoomii / morin khuur crossover, which the band has released on their recent album Gereg. Members of the band are: Tumenbayar Migdorj, Tumursaihan Yanlav, Uuganbaatar Tsend-Ochir, Amartuwshin Baasandorj, Sarangerel Tserevsamba, who are accompanied for live concerts by the female dancer Ariuanaa Tserendavaa.
