Orrendo Canto

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I cannot find significant discussion of this proposed concept in reliable sources. The linked sources don't actually use the phrases, and a Google search brings up results using the words in a non-specialized way (i.e. "Orrendo canto": saying that someone is a bad singer), or otherwise in a way that doesn't seem to be the same as in this article.

 * Delete as hoax, I believe. The phrase does of course exist in Italian, and is even in a song in Orlando Inamorato, but that does not make the article serious or notable. Love the "proposed vocal technique": yeah, nobody actually does it, riiiight. Two notes at once but not overtones, eh? Well, can you do that?... I think the fact that the phrase itself does not occur (as far as can be seen with the paywall in place) in either of the two supposed sources named in the article strongly suggests it's a hoax; all the high-falutin' musicological talk (which is basically lifted wholesale, in a jokey context) is just a bit of play, isn't it? No reliable sources; silly name; pretend references; posh-sounding language = WP:HOAX. Perhaps a little scientific Hoaxino trying to travel faster than light...
