Deep in the Heart of Tuva - Cowboy Music from the Wild East

The music alone is gorgeous ranging from solo performers to fully orchestrated pieces for what appears to be some kind of rock ensemble. It's the traditional stuff that really blows you away, though. There are a couple of pieces where the voice comes from left channel and the echo is recorded into the right, which sounds, for all the world, as if one is standing in some immense cavern or upon the side of a deep chasm. Marvelous.
