This Tyrolean choir’s performance looks like a spoof – but it’s deadly serious

The first thing that springs to mind when you think of Tyrolean choirs, which I’m guessing you don’t do often, must be yodelling, but it seems that isn’t the only kit they have in their locker – there’s also tonguing – the wholesome kind.

Cultural archive account, Flashbak, shared a clip of a Tyrolean choir performing some top-class tongue singing from back in 1982.

People weren’t quite sure what to make of it, but they definitely enjoyed the performance.

If the performance really spoke to you in a deep and meaningful way and you want to join in, here it is again – with lyrics.
