Bukhu is singing the ancient art of Mongolian Overtone Throat Singing
Bukhu began practising the ancient art of Mongolian Overtone Throat Singing and Harmonic Chant at the age of 15, known traditionally as Khöömii (Khuumii or Khoomei) referring to the various forms of overtone throat singing. The sounds of Khöömii are generated by manipulating the resonance of air pushed from the lungs , travelling past the vocal fold and lips to produced a melody. The melody can be selectively amplified by changing the shape of the resonant cavity of the mouth and throat via the manipulation of the tongue and surrounding muscles. This selective tuning generates simultaneous variations of pitch from a single resonant vocal frequency.
The roots of Khöömii are steeped in Mongolian culture with origins in Shamanism (Mongolia’s national religion) The modulated overtones generated while singing the base melody convey an ethereal inter-connectedness with the human spirit, nature and nomadic tradition. Bukhu finds renewed energy and warmth through his performance and considers throat singing practices as medicine.
Hi Bukhu, I was just wondering if you give lessons in throat singing in Sydney, or know of anyone who does? I am quite interested in learning how to do it as a form of meditation and healing. Thanks, Jill
Hi Jill, I will contact you via email. All the best Bukhu

Thank you Adam
Greetings. I am from the US and visiting family in Melbourne. I am a Shuaijiao competitor and I love Mongolian Bokh, hoomi, and shamanism. I tried my best to grasp the hoomii technique but have struggled and i so look forward to my first formal lesson which I planning on going all the way to Mongolia for until a friend told me there was a master in Sydney. It is my dream to be great at hoomii one day and use it for medicine warming peoples hearts. Are you available around the 1st or 2nd? Thanks in advance.
