Question

Melodies for this instrument gradually rise in pitch in a style of music that includes vuelie (“voo-ay-LEE”) and luohti (“loo-OH-tee”) styles. This is the primary instrument used by shamans called noaidi in the Sámi musical form (10[1]-5[1])joik (“YO-eek”). Two women standing (10[2])face-to-face use this instrument in (10[2])Inuit (10[1]-5[2])katajjaq (10[3]-5[3])performances. Caroline (-5[1])Shaw was (10[1])accused of cultural appropriation in her (-5[1])Partita for eight of (-5[1])these (10[2])instruments. (10[1])Performers suppress the fundamental (10[1]-5[1])pitch to (10[1])allow overtones to (10[1]-5[1])dominate in a (10[1])musical (10[1])style for this instrument (10[2])called khöömei, which originated in (-5[1])Tuva. Performers of an alpine (10[1])musical (-5[2])form for this (10[2]-5[2])instrument (10[1]-5[3])characteristically (-5[1])jump the (10[2]-5[1])passaggio, the break between this (10[1])instrument’s “chest” and (10[2])“head” registers. For (10[2])10 points, (10[1])name (10[4])this “instrument” used (10[3]-5[1])by (10[1])yodelers, which is unaccompanied in a (10[4])cappella (10[15]0[1])ensembles. ■END■
