An Introduction To Overtone Singing

Thursday 26th January 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

Overtone singing is a vocal technique that creates the auditory impression of polyphony by filtering individual overtones from the sound spectrum of the voice by controlling the resonances in the vocal tract in such a way that they are perceived as separate tones. (Saus 2004)

Wolfgang Saus
