  • Egschiglen are a Mongolian folk band, formed in Ulan Bator in 1991. In English, Egschiglen means "Beautiful Melody", and they are one of very few traditional Mongolian bands to have become internationally popular. From the beginning, Egschiglen set the focus of their artistic work on contemporary music. They systematically explored the sound dimensions of works by classical-modernist Mongolian composers, using traditional instruments from Mongolia and Central Asia, including the morin khuur (a violin with two strings made of horse hair), tobshuur (a lute symbolizing a swan's throat as neck), joochin (a type of hammered dulcimer), bass, percussion and singing techniques like khöömii throat singing. Their music is characterized by the delicacy and transparency of chamber music, but also by its deeply natural, compelling force. In Egschiglen’s performances, tunes from Shamanist or Buddhist tradition, which are common in Central Asia, impress through their diversity of expression and their intricate arrangements. The musicians also experiment with balancing acts between diverse cultures: in the course of the years, Egschiglen participated in a number of cooperation projects with musicians from various cultural areas. Furthermore, in a relaxed attitude, they present the latest finds from their adopted home, Franconia: traditional song material from the Altmühl valley, arranged as a Mongolian khöömii / morin khuur crossover, which the band has released on their recent album Gereg. Members of the band are: Tumenbayar Migdorj, Tumursaihan Yanlav, Uuganbaatar Tsend-Ochir, Amartuwshin Baasandorj, Sarangerel Tserevsamba, who are accompanied for live concerts by the female dancer Ariuanaa Tserendavaa.

  • Egschiglen (mongolisch Эгшиглэн, deutsch etwa: „Wohlklang“ oder „schöne Melodie“) ist ein mongolisches Musikensemble, das 1991 von vier Studenten des Konservatoriums in der mongolischen Hauptstadt Ulan Bator gegründet wurde, wo sie zwischen 1984 und 1991 gemeinsam studierten. Das Ensemble besteht aus fünf Musikern, die traditionelle und zeitgenössische auf traditionellen Instrumenten wie der zweisaitigen Pferdekopfgeige morin khuur, dem Hackbrett , der Wölbbrettzither yatga, der bundlosen, zweisaitigen Langhalslaute , dem gestrichenen Pferdekopf-Kontrabass und der Rahmentrommel hets (Schamanentrommel) spielen. Der Gesang ist solistisch und mehrstimmig im Stil des für Zentralasien typischen Obertongesanges (Khöömii) und des Urtiin duu („Langes Lied“). Neben ritueller und profaner Musik adaptieren Egschiglen auch Elemente westlicher Musik wie Rap-Elemente und spielen Werke zeitgenössischer mongolischer Komponisten.Mitglieder des Ensembles sind: Migdorj Tumenbayar, Yanlav Tumursaikhan, Amartuwshin Baasandorj, Uuganbaatar Tsend-Ochir, Sarangerel Tserevsamba, die bei Live-Auftritten von der Tänzerin Ariunaa Tserendavaa verstärkt werden. Die Musiker leben seit 1995 eine Zeit des Jahres im fränkischen Röthenbach an der Pegnitz. Durch Begegnungen mit lokalen Musikern und Instrumentenbauern haben sie sich auch mit bayrischen und alpenländischen Volksmusiktraditionen auseinandergesetzt und fränkische Volkslieder in mongolischem Stil bearbeitet.Egschiglen treten regelmäßig bei renommierten Weltmusik- und Klassik-Festivals vor allem in Westeuropa und in Asien auf.
