I don't remember the name, but in the recording when he got a particularly high note a clear overtone could be heard that sounded like a soprano coming in above him. It was beautiful. Any idea of who and what operatic number that might have been? Ever heard anything like that?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05138086990736188130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344257452876223679.post-91980615103995497332013-12-11T15:28:09.060-08:002013-12-11T15:28:09.060-08:00You are the best………..

(Panjo is similar to the Sanshin in sound and manner of play. It has no frets, so you just have to figure it out for yourself. Sharp sounds are made by pressing the string with the finger nail, while flats are done with the finger tip.) I too hear music everywhere; and I found your description of that experience to be profound.<br /><br />I'm personally interested in singing Japanese folk songs and Norito (Shinto prayers and incantations)using throat singing. The last Japanese throat singer died in 1976, though it was common in antiquity. Guji Yamamoto has often said that Norito should be said "with vibration" and I think he means this. While most Kannushi (a general term for Shinto priests)will simply say the Norito, the older generation tend to say it in a wavering voice or with a mildly throaty voice. I think it is the last holdover from a time when Norito may have been said with strong overtones such as in Rekukara Singing of the Ainu-jin (a Minority in Japan who were the probable first settlers since their legends remember a time before trees and when the ground was still hot on the volcanic islands that make up the region...).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02909017588523258342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344257452876223679.post-43834640053898696482012-08-21T08:55:09.636-07:002012-08-21T08:55:09.636-07:00Great blog, great generousity Alexander.

The scientific, the musical and the physical descriptions of how they work all combined to make learning to do this an awesome experience. I'm only 20 but I've been playing piano seriously since I was 8, and trumpet since i was 14, so I've always considered myself to have a much better than average 'ear' for music. But this is something totally beyond that. Now I use your videos as models for my own imitations. Thanks a lot!<br />Daniel<br />NYCUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16304054889143083063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344257452876223679.post-17297910353545349902012-02-02T09:56:34.067-08:002012-02-02T09:56:34.067-08:00Hey Alex we just listened to you in class today- i...Hey Alex we just listened to you in class today- ironically I got to York University as well for Classical Voice and I just have to say that I was disappointed to mo have hear of you sooner- aka before I am about to graduate!

I am writing because today, for the first time ever, I heard the overtones in my own voice. It was in my tiled shower, so the sound was strongly reflected back at me, and when I heard the 5th and 7th partials, I nearly dropped the soap. No, seriously, it was a magical experience. I am now obsessed with overtone singing, and trying to coax the overtones out and making them behave.<br /><br />Всего хорошего,<br /><br />DeanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344257452876223679.post-60555195194655208342011-02-14T10:45:28.272-08:002011-02-14T10:45:28.272-08:00Hi Alex,
