		Mongolia is hardly a hot bed in the world music scene.
		The gentle melodies, heart-felt singing, and other-worldliness of the music of this disc give it immediate appeal to anyone interested in seeing what other cultures create in their desire to sing the stories of their people.
		And, given the common ground much of this music has with styles more familiar to Western audiences, Tsagaan Sar would be a good place for a fan of "world-music" to begin the search towards "humanity-music", a search well worth taking.

		Cross together the music of the indigenous people of the Americas with Celtic and Northern Chinese (and roughly in that ratio) and you have Mongolian music.
		The recording is superb, the liner notes are thorough (if somewhat awkward in their translated form), and the photos are suitable cheesy enough (there is an overtly strong tendency to photograph Mongolian musicians in their most outlandish formal costumes, as opposed to their everyday clothes) to call this a masterpiece of the genre.
		I'm very biased towards the music of Mongolia; it is a tradition that has great breadth, rings familiar in a multitude of ways, and yet is obviously original (and anciently so at that).

		Multicultural Media has been releasing relatively exceptional albums of international traditional musics in recent years, and this installment for Mongolia is no exception.
		The album covers the ensemble music and song of Mongolia, with various bogino duus (short songs) as well as urtin duus (long songs) showcasing the pastoral style of music enjoyed by the Mongolians.
		Overall, the album is an exceptional reprise, if a short one, of Mongolian music, and should be checked out by anyone with a leaning towards the Central Asian sound, though it can range from overly complex to drab for the uninitiated.
