<< Does anyone know how to amplify or project high overtones over the

overtone singing. I can make various soft high flute-like overtones but
want to isolate them to make them stronger. Do you somehow block or mute
the fundamental or basic sound? Help!!!! >>

carol,

if i understand what you are asking, you have to make sure you are not
tightening your throat. you also have to make the front pocket of your
mouth smaller and that means using your tongue to do it (i think). can you
send me a sound file?
