Inscribed in 2008 on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (originally proclaimed in 2005). The Urtiin duu, or “long song,” is one of the two major forms of Mongolian songs, the other being the short song” (bogino duu). As a ritual form of expression associated with important celebrations and festivities, Urtiin duu plays a distinct and honored role in Mongolian society. It is performed at weddings, the inauguration of a new home, the birth of a child, the branding of foals, and other social events celebrated by Mongolia’s nomadic communities. The Urtiin duu can also be heard at the Naadam, a festivity featuring wrestling, archery, and horseracing competitions.
