1962

Kongar-ool Borisovich Ondar (Ондар Коңгар-оол Борис оглу, Ondar Konggar-ool Boris oglu,, Конгар-оол Борисович Ондар; 29 March 1962 – 25 July 2013) was a master Soviet and Russian Tuvan throat singer and a member of the Great Khural of Tuva.

Ondar was born near the Khemchik River in western Tuva, in the village of Iyme.

In the Central Asian tradition of self-fulfilling child naming, Kongar-ool literally translates to "loud boy."

Jovial and personable, Ondar is probably the best-known face of khöömei (хөөмей) throat singing to Westerners, appearing on the Late Show with David Letterman, the Oscar-nominated documentary Genghis Blues, and in interviews for CNN and other networks.

Ondar was also a teacher and opened a Center for the Development of Tuvan Traditional Arts in Kyzyl.

Pena, who had learned throat singing before coming to Tuva, was the subject of the documentary Genghis Blues in which Ondar was also featured.

1993

In 1993, he performed at Frank Zappa's eclectic "garden party/soiree" gathering in his last days.
