The thing is... Were can I practice so I don't scare my mother again? I'm leaving to the forest next week.

[@TheFimbulvinter]

Have the same problem hahaha

[@GrumpetteJV]

Or not to enrage the neighbours

[@TheCornflake1]

I work in a very noisy environment where everyone has to wear ear defenders so that's where i practice no one can hear a thing and makes work fly

I live in Texas, where the cows outnumber the people. I would love to learn this and try calling some. LOL!

[@noelyyoung931]

AmyD saaaammeee!!

[@timmyhoffarth6705]

Well the cows need to be trained to it. Thats why you practice in the barn when your feeding the cows and each family had their own calls that their herds came home to. The first hulning i learned called my father n step mothers horses.

[@cubancanary]

Incredible how this even shows great vocal technique and encourages relaxing the mouth and larynx and lifting the soft pallet. Makes for great vocal warm ups, come to think of it... I’m in love.

[@marshaandini4691]

lil M3l! My choir teacher did this technique to warm up our voice before choir practice session. Men do the same but in lower pitch.

[@brendasmith5937]

My step mom is an opera singer. These are also some of the techniques she was taught.

[@catniplemon]

Fooling around with doing this one summer evening on a drive in the country with my husband....a mule deer doe came rushing over a hilltop, down the hill, over a fence towards us. The buck we saw before her, stood statue still not more than 50 yards away while I did my own version of kulning out the window.

[@jjmetrejhon1743]

You called my cat into the room. I was sitting here watching, and we know she likes singing and calling, but she actually responded to you at 0:40 ♥

[@ShinySilverBunny]

i used to take a lot of vocal lessons and sing and i am researching my ancestral history and i want to start Kulning. this is truly like an ancient language in a way... a way of communication to animals and humans.. simply beautiful i really appreciate the presentation of this and how you broke it down. ive been trying to find my "voice" and i think Kulning is where i will sit for a while. Thank you.

[@phoebeblaze3668]

I have to admit that the "nanana hello hello, nice to meet you" bit made me giggle. Thank you for this video, as someone with a slightly deeper voice I didn't think I'd be able to do it but it seems like it's much more about technique than natural sound. Very helpful.

[@debbiedebbie9473]

I want to learn how to do this, But there's no way to do this secretly until you get good at it.

[@lisalundmalm4793]

Soo true

When I was in primary school choir we had to learn this... it’s the most beautiful sound ever especially if there are other voices singing other notes/octaves at the same time. Really appreciate tjis vidéo 🙏

[@anndanduan7846]

finally an english tutorial for this! thank you so much! i actually have some problems regarding to my voice while attempting to do a kulning. it's hard for me to find the right tone to fit my voice. it's been a long time since the last time i sang. and im living in a city so its hard also to find a good place to try this and the people around here dont know and not familiar to what kulning is. hahaha.

[@darkrose8777]

Yes and no. It's just a different style if singing although when she said wide mouth I was like NOOOO! TALL 👋VOWELS👏ONLY👏 but then I listened to her singing and I was like :0

[@williamozier918]

I learned from drunk Navajo that it's all in the ululation. The ululation makes sound actually travel further, plus the human ear picks it up easier than a flat tone. ALSO if you can find an echo, then you can whoop, and then count until the echo returns and with that information you can determine range. According to the person who told me that ancient indians used to use that technique to measure distances over miles.

[@vvelvettearss]

O wow that is super neat! What an amazing way to gauge distances before devices were invented I would never have thought of that. Appreciate the info!

Thank you, Maria! Your voice is wonderful. I have been trying kulning since I first heard it listening to Gjallarhorn, and have always wanted to incorporate it into my singing. The tips you gave have been very helpful, and I have been using them to perfect my kulning technique the past couple of weeks since you posted this, and I can hear a real improvement! Thank you for keeping this tradition alive and passing on your knowledge.

2:05 Epona Song. I always knew Malon was Scandinavian

[@nevesdarocha]

Also look up "hollering". There's a large history of it in the South, and it's being kept alive by small groups. There used to be a Hollerin Festival and contest in North Carolina.

[@Coaching-is3pz]

Thank you for posting! Started looking it up. Also hog calling. And I was surprised to find that cat calling, that is, "Here kitty, kitty, kitty" is the same thing! There's an upward slide on the "here."

oh my lord yes! Thank you for this. I love singing but Kulning just seems so much more up my alley in terms of being a form of expression. And oh who i wish i could find a place to do this! But being in Hong Kong as crowded as it is probably won't tolerate any sort of loud calls :/ Hope to find a isolated area to practice this one day.

crazy seeing this as I’m in Hong Kong rn practicing this at home

I gonna start to practice now, here in Tocopilla, a town of Chile in Southamerica. The place is so different, there we have ocean and desert, but if I close my eyes I could imagine my chillhood.

My husband ask me to learn kulning. Here I am...! Btw i love your video.. easy for me to know and learn about kulning. Thanks Maria💝

[@mmzddx96]

Okay, I have to say, this really struck a chord with me, no pun intended!! The first time I found my voice was when I was in children's choir at 10, then continued singing by myself. At one point I began to test myself to see if I actually had a VOCAL RANGE -- and ended up going pretty high. Me -- Soprano. Then I got into community college and was back with a group there. There was so much that I learned. However, I had never heard of kulning until now! I never realized this beautiful Swedish form of singing could make a difference for me. This could be a good way for me to rediscover the confidence in my voice and perhaps keep working on my larynx and my vocal range! Girl from Texas, U.S.A. here. P.S. I am actually pitch-perfect. Don't wanna brag, but I gotta be honest. Respect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ymer1720]

Search for "Jonna Jinton kulning" here on youtube. She is amazing!

[@kraze4kaos]

[@missmojo8779]

I am no singer and have no intention to learn kulning. Somehow still really like this video.

[@CriticaLxThoughX]

It's similar to yodel

[@aliceg6373]

my singing teacher said I had amazing nasal pull and placement, but struggle with belting and pointing my voice from the chest and stomach. I have to be honest, this video helped with my singing anxiety so much... Because I'm always tense, when it comes to strength behind chest and belly voice. Thank you so much! Kulning is deff a training tool haha

[@unassumingcorvid9639]

Some of the exercises are very similar to ones I did in choir, which is very interesting. I can't wait to start practicing

Robin Pollard master your head tone and falsetto

[@hama.1962]

do it in your highest octave, but apply the nasal sound and the vowels and technique she uses-- kinda like hollering in a way nottttt lol

[@sharkstriker1]

It will definitely make things more difficult but it is possible.

[@lunanova369]

I have quite a deep raspy voice as a girl and I was surprised how good I sounded doing this. I'm my own worst critic so I dont say that lightly. So if I could do it, you definitely could!🖤 You just can't hold back or you'll crack. I practiced doing it as loud as I wanted into a pillow so I dont feel worried about being too loud or others hearing me.

[@ymer1720]

Practice makes perfect. :) And you can´t screw it up because there is no right or wrong. It´s an old herding call and everyone can do it in their own way and voice. I´m scandinavian and I´m just happy if more people learn to kula so this traditional herding call don´t die out. :)
