Description
Tsuur music encompasses a diverse range of instruments, including bowed and stringed varieties and those that utilize the human voice. It is crucial to understand and accurately distinguish between these various instruments associated with the name Tsuur. The term "Tsuur" clearly refers not to a single type of music but rather to multiple forms of overtone music that share a common musical foundation. Moreover, the evolution of echo music has unmistakably progressed through three distinct stages. The differing methods employed in each historical period underscore significant advancements in the technology used to create this music.
