The introduction offers the overall background and structure of the volume. Additionally, the chapter includes three short vignettes: Sharav, one of the contemporary composers; Mongolia’s first opera, Uchirtai Gurvan Tolgoi (Three Fateful Hills); and the context and changing performance style of the National Academic State Ensemble. Through these three snapshots, the introduction explores Mongolia’s musical history, reflecting the current musical scene in Ulaanbaatar, aspects of Western art music in Mongolia, and finally the fluid mobility of Mongolia’s culture.
