Cantadoras III: Sainkho Namtchylak & HMOT

The Tuvan singer is one of the most radical voices today. She uses overtone singing (khoomei) in which multiple tones are made simultaneously, as well as traditional laryngeal techniques. Her voice transcends the borders between 3000 years of old Tuvan tradition and noise-avant garde, between language and sound. In Cantadoras she meets with Siberian-born Bashqort sound artist Stas Shärifullá, also known as HMOT.

What can a voice be? Ritual, resistance, myth and knowledge keeper? Visionary, memory and healing? The new series Cantadoras brings together outstanding women artists who radically pose this question, each in their own way, tradition and practice. Various vocal techniques meet improvisation and performance, spiritual practice meets political resistance, centuries-old traditions meet progressive sonic art. In the first season, the new concert series by Unlimited combines overtone singing from Tuva, Persian vocal traditions from Iran, music from Karnataka, Ukrainian polyphonic singing and Ethiopian-Swedish vocal art.
