*German singer Anna-Maria Hefele stunned the world with a viral video showcasing polyphonic overtone singing, a vocal technique that lets her sing two notes at once.*
*By skillfully shaping her mouth, tongue, and throat, she amplifies harmonics above a base pitch, producing clear, flute-like tones.*
*Trained at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, Hefele has since performed worldwide, blending art, science, and education.*
*Her unique voice has been studied through MRI imaging and praised for its precision and beauty. Through concerts, workshops, and research, she continues to expand the boundaries of what the human voice can do.*
Why is she blinking so fast tho what’s up with that? Side effect of the two notes is that the price to pay?

Can she only do the high one or must it come with the other?

Jeez, this took me down a rabbit hole. I tried to find if this is real or AI crap, and ended up listening to audio clipping of some dude on Wikipedia singing Canon.
That was followed by so many talented folks doing this. I still can’t believe this is humanly possible. Truly wonderful what some folks can do.
Thanks for sharing this.

There’s a beatboxer (Stitch) who uses polyharmonics and it sounds crazy .
Best to watch with headphones
Haven’t the Mongolians been doing something very similar for centuries?

She can sing two notes at the same time.
But one of them has to be the most annoying sound from dumb and dumber.

Isn’t this called Throat Singing? Listen to the band “The Hu”.

Sounds like she’s got a low pass filter with a bit of resonance fitted. Genuinely awesome.

So…are we gonna have a new fifth element with her as the opera singer?
Nahh can’t take that from our man Bruce.
Still a cool idea though.

If you like this, check out the movie Ghengis Blues. It’s about Paul Pena, the blind blues musician who wrote the song Jet Airliner, and his trip to Tuva. Bonus points for the Feynman connection.
