Overtone and Intuitive singing
Overtone and Intuitive singing by Oleg Rossiyskiy, Iryna Kazachenko, Michele Averard, Nestor Kornblum. 13th of Jan 2013, The Dome, Alcalali, Spain
a common space for harmonic overtones
Dynggyldaj
This traditional tuvan song was recorded by the tremendous band Alash Ensemble* on their first album, "Alash". Of course you can find many versions of this song from many artists, but this one is my favourite so I took inspiration from it to make this video (as I am far from their level I think we cannot talk about copying :D ).
The first step was the 6-holes flute, then the drum and first voice, and finally the fiddle and second voice. All these instruments are traditional ones, made by hand and most of the time used to perform XIIIth century music. As you can see I still need to improve..!
For the vocal part (1st voice/ 2nd voice): the first verse is sung with both natural voices, the second is (xorekteer**/normal), the third is (normal/kargyraa), the interlude is (kargyraa-sygyt/kargyraa), the fourth is (kargyraa/kargyraa), the last is (natural/natural). This last one is a free transcription in french.
*Please do visit the band website, very inspiring and full of great information about Tyva and tuvan throat singing:

**That was my first attempt.
(and sorry for the mistake in the title)

I am sorry, I don't find it boring at all. I meant to express how impressed I am that you did it with 3 instruments and 2 vocals, layered with video. That seems like a really tedious process. I would have been to lazy to do it this way, but not too lazy to watch and click on "like".
I love your stuff, monsieur, don't misunderstand.

Indeed I misunderstood, but I have to thank you for this vocabulary improvement :)
The problems of being a non-english native... is that you spend very bad days after positive comments!
(as for the process, it took me several hours to have the flute melody in one raw... and I finally took it "as is" because I was too tired and my fingers started to protest. The two other layers were quite straightforward - two or three days after. )
Thank you Dan!
