Hi Jim,

Thanks for posting this link regarding singing subharmonic tones.

It's really good to see your posting on the list today. A number of years
ago a musician friend of mine, knowing of my interest in overtone singing,
bought me a copy of your first tape as a gift. I just about wore it out. I'm
quite glad to see that you have some CDs available now, I'll peruse your
site again later when the 'net isn't so congested and order one.

"Music is far, far older than our species. It is tens of millions of years
old, and the fact that animals as wildly divergent as whales, humans and
birds come out with similar laws for what they compose suggests to me that
there are a finite number of musical sounds that will entertain the
vertebrate brain."
