Throat Singing in Mongolia

Throat singing perhaps is the best-known musical type in Mongol tradition which is known as hoomii which exist among all the Mongols, however, it is the best-known international from Tuva. The songs are differently from the traditional vocals. In Mongolia, the greatest renowned throat singers include Khalhas like Gereltsogt and Sunui while Tuvan group Huun-Huur-Tu has the international following. The special type of singing includes the making of two differently audible pitches at the same time which also include the low pedal note or the drone which originate from the basic constant of the vocal cord vibrations and the higher melodic notes that result as the process when singer’s mouth are used as the filter, selecting one note in the same time through the drone’s natural overtone series of pitches.
