Monday, February 23, 2026
10am &11:30am
Grades: 4-8
Celebrate the Lunar New Year with the Tuvergen Band! This engaging and educational program introduces the distinctive musical and cultural traditions of Mongolia with it’s deep connection to the natural world. Experience how the country's traditional music reflect the sounds of wind, water, animals and the expansive grasslands of the steppe. At the heart of this tradition is throat singing (khöömii), a mesmerizing vocal technique in which a single voice produces multiple tones at once, echoing the layered harmonies of the surrounding environment.
Tuvergen Band features Tamir Hargana, an award-winning throat singer and multi-instrumentalist; Naizal Hargana, a master of the morin khuur who was principal and leading soloist of the Inner Mongolian Youth Choir’s Morin Khuur Ensemble and is known for bridging Mongolian and Western styles; and Brent Roman, a ethnomusicologist and former Cirque du Soleil performer whose global drum kit and didgeridoo add rich texture to the group’s sound. Together, they create “modern nomadic music”--- perfect for celebrating the year of the horse!
Format: 60 minutes, in-person performance at Flushing Town Hall’s theater.
Grade Levels: recommended for grades 3-8.
Tickets: ALL tickets $10 per person.
