In this online concert film presentation, viewers will be taken on a journey to the expanse of Siberia by Yuliyana Krivoshapkina and Nachyn Choreve, virtuosos whose music evokes the power of nature and the deep connections between humanity and the universe. Nachyn is a master of different styles of throat singing while Yuliyana’s artistry on the khomus (jaw harp) harnesses the sounds of birds, reindeer, and winds of the seemingly endless tundra of Yakutia. These musical styles combined “evoke the grandeur and impermanence of the natural world.” The concert, Sounds of Siberia, 2020, 64 minutes, was organized by Pure Nature Music and recorded by Tim Solovyev and Zhargal Solovyev. The film will be followed by a Q & A session with Vera Solovyeva, an indigenous (Sakha) person from the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russian Federation.
This program is part of Building Equity Project, supported by the New York Community Trust.

National Indigenous Peoples Day (French: Journée nationale des peuples autochtones) is a day recognising and celebrating the cultures and contributions of the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Indigenous peoples in Canada. The day was first celebrated as National Aboriginal Day in 1996, after it was proclaimed that year by then Governor General of Canada Roméo LeBlanc, to be celebrated on 21 June annually. 21 June was chosen as the statutory holiday for many reasons-including its cultural significance as the Summer Solstice, and the fact that it is a day on which many Indigenous peoples and communities traditionally celebrate their heritage. It was renamed in 2017.
