Purpose: Illustrate manipulation of vocal formants and harmonics in the voice.
Description: A chorus sings in such a manner to accentuate subharmonics and harmonic overtones in their voices. The recording was made in an abandoned watertower, which serves as a large resonant cavity with a long decay time. Two tracks also include the music of a tamboura. The CD can be played in the audio cart, or using a PC, which offers a spectrogram visualization of the tracks.

To view the spectrogram of these sources, play them on the PC using Windows Media Player 9. To run Media Player 9 in full mode, press CTRL+1. To turn on the spectrogram visualization from the menu bar, select View --> Visualizations --> Bars & Waves --> Bars.
