#623 — Extraordinary Voices, Part 1

The aim here is not a subjective quest to find "the best voices in the world", but rather to let you hear some incredible talents and unusual techniques from singers who usually associate with folk and traditional music. For Part 1 we'll spend most our listening time in Central and Western Asia and Eastern Europe; multi-phonics, super-human sustains, gob-smacking range of pitch and incredible vibrato.
