Answer to Question 1

ANS: Whistling represents the spirit of the wind, which herders find a divine
connection with. Herders often use whistling to control their animals.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: Tuul' are the epic songs sung by professionally trained singers. They
feature traditional pentatonic melodies that are used to sing strophic verses. Performances
may include instrumental accompaniment throughout and spoken dialogue in between
sections of verse.
