This is the second melody I recorded while waiting for the Go-Train in Hamilton Ontario. Amazing Grace is a classic melody for any overtone singer (and the first one I ever learned) but usually it is based on a single fundamental. This version features a moving fundamental to follow the harmony of the song. I hope you like it!
Here is me singing Amazing Grace using overtone throat singing. Thanks to yuichituba for the tutorial that taught me this overtone throat singing. Be sure to check his video out as well if you get the chance (Both his tutorial and his Amazing Grace video). Be sure to rate! 🙂 And also I very much appreciate comments from any “more superior than I” Overtone Throat Singers that wish to give me tips and what not. And if you don’t fall into that catagory then I still appreciate your comments 😛

(Correction from the video): doing a little overtone singing on the hymn “Amazing Grace” (not Tuvan). For those of you that are much experienced I appreciate your comments and your thoughts. Just to let people know, I am intentionally doing the more Western approach by not making my voice throaty like the authentic Tuvan/Mongolian style. I am a classical vocalist so I prefer not to produce nodules.
