Thread Name: Inuit (eskimo) throat singing
Subject: Inuit (eskimo) throat singing
I once saw footage of a singing style practiced by Alaska Natives.
It involved 2 singers singeing face to face so that each voice would resonate off of the others' open mouth....has anyone ever heard of or seen this? What is it called, and where is it done, and are there any recordings or videos of this available? (Alaska Mike--do you know what
I am talking (talk-eet-ning) about?)
