Khoomei, Hooliin Chor (in Mongolian, ‘throat harmony’), or Mongolian throat singing is one particular variant of overtone singing practiced by the Mongol people in Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, and Tuva. It's inscribed in 2009 on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity of UNESCO, under the name "Mongolian art of singing, Khoomei".[1]
