Aomildal
Overtones & Harmonium
by Igor Ezendam & Kaushalya Vishenmatrioshka

We publish this incredible overtone recording, in beauty and Soul flying, with Igor Ezendam singing overtones, and Kaushalya Vishenmatriosha playing exquisite harmonium, on the winter solstice of 2020.

Please take ten minutes aside, sitting in a relaxed listening position, to capture the healing effect of the vocal harmonics. If you are mesmerized by these sounds, as we are, do realize that we are all capable of creating these sounds. Find your vocal freedom and learn overtone singing from Igor at Feeling Sound.

This recording is also published as part of a collection of juicy content from Corfu: the Nectar Collective.

View into an Overtone Singer

"Freude schöner Götterfunken" (Ode to Joy) in overtone singing style by Wolfgang Saus.

More information: https://www.oberton.org

What you see in this amazing dynamic MRI (MRT) is the tongue movement building up double resonances along the melody line of Beethoven's "Ode to Joy". Overtone singing is based on bringing together the second and third resonance frequency of the vocal trakt (also referred to as "formants") on one frequency to enhance the loudness of a single overtone in the vocal sound spectrum. The second formant is controlled by the root of the tongue together with the epiglottis. The third formant is ruled by the space under the tongue, which is bigger than it seems in the video. Overtone singing is a constantly fine adjustment of the two resonance cavities.

It's not easy to record (and sing) sound in the very noisy environment of a MRT (MRI). The team in Freiburg developed highly specialized equipment for recording and filtering. Nevertheless, the sound is of course not HiFi.

Visualization of Vocal Functions

The video visualizes the relation of overtones, vowels and vocal tract resonances. The spoken text is in German. I will make an english version soon.

Harmonic Union

2012-08-27T17:18:13.935Z

Michele and Nestor join voices in a demonstration of UNION. Nestor sings overtones / vocal harmonics and plays the shruti box. Michele's voice enters later and male and female energies and voices dance together. A very meditative piece...
For those who have never heard overtones, the flutelike instrument in this piece comes from Nestor's voice, and is consciously controlled to create the melodies that you hear. There are no electronic instruments apart from a little reverb, as it's an open air concert.
