Tibetan Throat Singing
Tibetan Throat Singing, also known as overtone singing, is a unique vocal technique originating from the Tibetan Plateau. Singers produce multiple pitches simultaneously by manipulating their vocal cords and mouth shape, creating a rich, harmonic sound. This practice is often associated with Tibetan Buddhist rituals and is used to enhance meditation and spiritual experiences.
The technique involves producing a fundamental tone while simultaneously generating overtones, which are higher frequencies that resonate above the main pitch. Tibetan Throat Singing is not only a musical form but also a cultural expression, reflecting the deep spiritual and communal values of the Tibetan people.
