Soriah With Ashkelon Sain

The Portland musician and ritual artist known as Soriah first came into being more than 10 years ago. His unique vision has evolved to draw equally from performance and musical traditions both modern and ancient— raga, shamanism, the revisionist arts of electro-acoustics, noise, butoh, and free improvisation. One element which pervasively informs his work, is traditional Tuvan throat singing. Soriah has extensively trained in, and received recognition for his achievements with, this style of overtone singing.
