Episode 257: Anna-Maria Hefele

 

           ⁠ I came across Anna-Maria Hefele's YouTube channel upon seeing a sample video of her explaining the technicality of overtone singing. I was fascinated by her ability to sing two notes at the same time, so I reached out to have a conversation. Anna-Maria shared with me how her journey with overtone singing began, the technicality of this vocal art, and we even dived into some philosophical musings on sound. 

           Please enjoy the 257th episode of Lament of Hope highlighting Anna-Maria Hefele. Anna-Maria, thank you for talking with me. It was so neat to connect and talk about the fascinating world of sound.
