Inuit throat singing

Inuit throat singing, known as "katajjaq" in some Inuit dialects, is a unique vocal tradition practiced primarily by Inuit women from the Arctic regions of Canada and Alaska. This form of singing is characterized by a two-part vocalization, where two performers engage in a rhythmic and often competitive exchange of sounds, producing deep, resonant tones and intricate patterns. The performances typically involve a call-and-response format, where one singer initiates a phrase, and the other responds.
