Teachers of overtones will know that a large proportion of their students are people with extra-special qualities. With the exception of people inspired by ego, a great corruptor, it takes a very special kind of person to be passionate about harmoni…
Thank you Max. Yes I first came aware of these in earlier reports in 2005 and it still excites me. This could be the earliest evidence of overtone singing. The possibilities are awe inspiring. Thanks again
Thank you Elizabeth. Your book sounds intriguing. How do I get a copy? In Italy I recommend singing in Duomo, the great cathedral that was built in, I think, 1386. It is an overtone singing experience so extraordinary that those around you have abso…
Well done Skye and Jens. Thanks for your efforts. It was a very clever mind who thought to present resonant power places like this.
Sorry I don't intend to muddy what is a good idea. It's about getting the concept right. I do think that the Throat Singing Hall of Fame is very different from an Overtone Singing Hall of Fame and that maybe the former would be applicable in Tuva an…

Profile Information
- About me:
- Harmonic throat singing recording artist/performer, instructor, author of 'The 8th Natural Wonder' - a book on throat singing, Guinness world record holder for the longest continuous vocal note. I'm passionate about the broad spectrum of throat singing and deeply concerned that it is endangered in so many of its traditional grounds. Throat singing is also central to my spiritual practices.
- As a band we are:
- Solo, in duo with Linda Laasi, in trio with Linda and crystal bowl player - Arrayah ...... Mia Mia Harmonic Choir, formerly with Aajinta, Soteria Bell and the Eternal Choir (which wasn't too eternal)
- Instruments:
- Many techniques of harmonic voice, didgeridoo, jaw harp, harmonic whirlie, native American flute, harmonica
- Influences:
- Sounds of Nature and the nature of sounds and harmonic humans everywhere - I don't like to think in terms of 'influences', more as 'contributors' to my living songline. If so then David Hykes, Shu De, Tenores de Bidis, Sarah Hopkins, Gyuto Monks, Hun Hur Tu, Bruce Rogers, Peter Gleeson

MYSTERIES OF THROAT SINGING
MYSTERIES OF THROAT SINGING
An enormous collection of singing styles share common elements - opera, jazz, country, blues, rock n roll, gospel, pop, funk, rap, soul, et al. They sing songs, songs with words, words which emphasise whole notes, duration of singing breaths mostly under 10 seconds, and usually within a restricted zone of medium frequencies. Throat singing has none of these parameters.

Jens Mügge said… - Hi Dean,
I agree with you. This performance in front of a audience with 4000 and knowing that this show will be seen by 7 Million people in Germany was really tremendous. The next gig will be a live broadcast. Then Hosoo has a second change to win new fans. More than his performance I love the view into the faces of the audience. I am getting goose bumps if I see this video again and again. All the best,
Jens

- Hi Dean,
thanks for your response. It was really a special show. Hosoo, the mongolian throatsinger star in the german supertalent show of Dieter Bohlen etc.. This guy Dieter Bohlen was duet partner of Modern Talking and he made some jokes about Hosoo & Tsomoo that Hosoo could be the mongolian Modern Talking. I think he was speechless but had to talk something - the result is: just simple joky trash out his mouth. Bohlen comes from Lower Saxony like me, so this is only a flat kind of humour of a countryman :-)
Cheers,
Jens

- Hi Dean, thanks for your message.
We are still in contact - always - which you can call a friendship of harmonics - and have you forgotten that I am receiving Dean's harmonic News? I am reading them always and thinking of you. I am doing also my own projects ... next week I will meet for example Hosoo ...
Best,
Jens

Tran Quang Hai said… - Dear Dean,
Thanks for your mail. I haven't got any video of Dani throat singing . I got some audio recordings from a CD published in France . Because I haven't never been there to film this tribe .
I was in Australia last february to attend a congress in Canberra and a lecture at Western Australian University in Perth.
Hope to be back to Perth next year .
Best,
Tran Quang Hai
