An ethnomusical presentation of one person's vocal performance of rather highly varied sets of words, manners of performance, and the use of these competences in communication with other singers. Although this orally-transmitted form of singing is unique to the Kammu of northern Laos, it is related to a much larger complex in Southeast Asia and thus will of interest to a wide group of musicologists. CD included.
