On the Magic of Overtone Singing

For "special people" scientific interests sometimes co-occur with personal "hobbies". I remember Franco talking to me about the "magic atmosphere" raised by the voice of Demetrio Stratos, David Hykes or Tuvan Khomei singers and I still have clear in my mind Franco's attitude towards these "strange harmonic sounds". It was more than a hobby but it was also more than a scientific interest. I have to admit that Franco inspired my "almost hidden", a part from few very close "desperate" family members, training in Overtone Singing . This overview about this wonderful musical art, without the aim to be a complete scientific work, would like to be a small descriptive contribute to honor and remember Franco's wonderful friendship.
