Throat singing

From a car horn symphony, to an artist residency with NASA, to Tuvan throat-singing, the performance artist Laurie Anderson has no boundaries when it comes to making music. Now, with four decades of composing and performing behind her, Anderson tells Kurt about her new album Homeland, her first in nearly ten years.

Today’s Global Hit features throat singer Tanya Tagaq. She’s from a remote Inuit community way up in Canada’s High Arctic.
