Ethnographic context
The quartet of male voices is paired in twos ; in each duo the two voices 'lift-up-over' one another ; each duo additionally "lifts-up over" the other duo with the droned "o" phrase endings ; voices and rattles are also 'lift-up-over soundings' to the voices in the overall, Kaluli are also pointed out that the use of crescendo and decrescendo here enhances the temporal fullness of the 'lift-up-over sounding' sound.
