Mongolian Throat Singing

Simply amazing!

As I was searching for supplementary material for the Mongolian language class we are working on, I came across some videos on YouTube of Mongolian throat singing. I had heard the sound before, but never realized it was made by singing. I had always assumed it was an instrument similar to a flute. Simply amazing!
