I have read the text on overtone singing / throat singing published by Wikipedia. I am very surprised that this encyclopedia forgot my contribution to overtone singing in Europe. I am one of the first person (researcher/performer)who discovered overtone singing from Mongolia in 1969. I was the first composer who used overtones in an electro acoustical composition namely "ve nguon" (return to the sources) started in 1972 and created for the world premiere in 1975 in France

You can surf on my homepage (http://tranquanghai.info) to know my research on overtone singing. You have mentioned many persons on the listing who learnt overtones with me (Demetrio Stratos). I was president of the jury of the 2nd World Festival of Throat Singing in Kyzyl (Tuva)in 1995. I have published more than 20 articles on overtone singing, made a film "Le chant des Harmoniques" in 1989, a DVD "Le chant diphonique" in 2004. I have given more than 500 workshops of overtone singing and have had more than 8,000 persons learning that vocal technique with me in 70 countries around the world.
