Non-Western and tribal music, diplophonia is known as ‘throat-singing’ and it is
practiced and celebrated. Diplophonia, also known as throat-singing, is defined as the
bowing of the vocal folds, creating two or more distinct sounds simultaneously
(Vartanian). In both Western and Non-Western music, the voice can be used with
auxiliary functions. These sounds can include belting, grinding, and certain techniques
such as a ‘twangy’ nasal style, all in Western singing. In Non-Western singing, these
vocal functions can include clicks, whistles, and various forms of throat-singing. The
voice is quite flexible, and the author believes that diplophonia should be valued and
