Throat singing, also known as overtone singing, is a vocal technique that allows a singer to produce multiple pitches simultaneously. It is characterized by a fundamental pitch (the main tone) alongside one or more overtones that are shaped by resonating in the throat, mouth, and other parts of the vocal tract. This unique singing style is practiced in various cultures around the world, with notable traditions in Mongolia and Tuva, where it is often referred to as "Hoomii".
