Vladimir Oidupaa
Vladimir Oiun Oidupaa (Russian: Владимир Ойунович Ойдупаа, 6 September 1949 - 25 September 2013) was a Tuvan musician, who performed Kargyraa and played bayan.[1] He is considered one of the leading figures in the contemporary Tuvan music.[2]
Oidupaa created his own style of kargyraa performance (high-tone kargyraa accompanied by the bayan), known as Oidupaa style and developed further by notable Tuvan performers including Chirgilchin.[1][3] The Oidupaa style was compared with blues.[4]
He spent 33 years in jail before he became known as musician. In jail, he converted to Christianity.[1]
In 2007, Oidupaa appeared at the Channel One Russia in Moscow in one of the contest programs, but was booed from the podium before he could finish his performance, and Tatyana Tolstaya, one of the jury members, arrogantly called his style "discordant" and "disharmonious".[5] Oidupaa himself claimed later that he irritated her on purpose, to avoid the Channel broadcasting his records for free for two years in case he would win.[6][7]
