Polyphonic Voice

Is it possible for a single singer to sing in polyphony?

I know it might sound crazy

Of course it can be, and it's not crazy

From what I understand, there is a larynx position that allows the harmonics present (naturally) in the voice to resonate more; at excellent levels, one can even control this position and "modulate" the notes.

There are also those who manage to sing with words and not just with single notes... precisely, for Siberians and Mongols, it is a tradition

Dyphonic singing - Overtone singing INTRODUCTION

In any case, it seems to me that it is considered an extremely harmful technique for the larynx and the vocal cords.

I had never heard anything like it!

I had noted down a few useful links

In the meantime, we are talking about Overtone Singing

Thanks, is there something you don't know?

Anyway it's incredible ... but texts, something that explains well how it works?

It is reported by Roberto Laneri, musician and composer who until not many years ago was more well-known in America than in Italy (having lived there for many years), because overtone singing is precisely one of his specialties.

... in English it is called Overtone singing, a name that seems even more appropriate to me, a useful little page on wiki:

For the Overtone Singing technique I had found this pdf (contains some ideas), useful also in general

Without going far, there was Demetrio Stratos, with his solo works: after a while, they tire me. They are impressive for the effect, but I prefer Demetrio in Area. Perhaps one of the Italian groups least known and most valued abroad.

Thanks also for the latest interventions, even if I continue to find it crazy ... it is practically a whole world to discover.

Stratos or the distant ones beyond the Urals?

German singer Anna-Maria Hefele has published a video in which she gives a demonstration of polyphonic overtone singing, a technique that allows a single voice to simultaneously produce two or more distinct sounds. It becomes very clear starting from approximately minute 3:25, when the two melodies move in opposite directions.
