The album covers the ensemble music and song of Mongolia, with various bogino duus (short songs) as well as urtin duus (long songs) showcasing the pastoral style of music enjoyed by the Mongolians. Also included are shorter bits showcasing both the traditional instruments in solo works, as well as the fabled khoomi singing, or as more Westernized groups such as Huun Huur Tu have popularized, "throat singing," where the formant of the sound spectrum is shifted to a higher overtone of the fundamental to effectively create a dual tone from the voice. Finally, songs from and/or about Mongols in China are included. Highlights on this album are mainly the shorter bits of instrumental soloing, particularly Nergui's morin khuur solo on "Jonon Qara's Run," Dandram's solo on the shudraga for "Copper and Steel," and the two khoomi pieces by Tserendawah. One last highlight is the long song by Gereltu about Dugureng Zaan, a folk hero wrestler murdered by the Han because he defeated one of their wrestlers. Overall, the album is an exceptional reprise, if a short one, of Mongolian music, and should be checked out by anyone with a leaning towards the Central Asian sound, though it can range from overly complex to drab for the uninitiated. ~ Adam Greenberg, All Music Guide
　　Living Music of the Steppes: Instrumental Music and Song of Mongolia is the first disc in the "Music of the Earth" series from Multicultural Media. The twenty-one tracks on this CD offer the listener a sample of the vocal techniques as well as some solo instrumental pieces from across Mongolia. All tracks originally appeared in the eighty-volume CD collection Music of the Earth: Fieldworkers’ Sound Collections released by the Victor Company of Japan (JVC) in 1992.
　　These recordings were made in the early 1990s by Haruo Hasumi, professor of Mongolian at the Tokyo University of Foreign Studies. The first seven recordings group bogïno duu and urtïn duu ("short" and "long" song) selections with a few purely instrumental numbers and selection from the "epic song" tradition while the next nine recordings combine köömiy ("pharynx" or "throat" singing) performance with solo instrumental recordings on the morin khuur (horse-head, two string spiked- fiddle), shudraga (three stringed, plucked lute), and the yatag (board zither) among others. These sixteen selections were recorded primarily in the capital city Ulaanbaatar in the east of Mongolia, and in the Hovd province in the western half of Mongolia. The last five recordings were made among expatriate Mongolians residing in either Japan or Northern China. These last five tracks incorporate many of the genres heard in the previous two sections including morin khuur solo and urtïn duu, as well as epic song performances and narrative.
