Yodel in Hi-Fi explores the vibrant and varied traditions of yodelers around the world. Far from being a quaint and dying art; yodel is a thriving vocal technique that has been perennially renewed by singers from Switzerland to Korea; from Colorado to Iran. Bart Plantenga offers a lively and surprising tour of yodeling in genres from opera to hip-hop and in venues from cowboy campfires and Oktoberfests to film soundtracks and yogurt commercials. Displaying an extraordinary versatility; yodeling crosses all borders and circumvents all language barriers to assume its rightful place in the world of music.

For those who expect a more scientific book not the right choice. I enjoy it and always when I read in the book I am again impressed by the beautyful structures of each single snow crystal.
