Yodeling is an ancient form of singing that was popularised by Scandinavian shepherds. The term ‘yodel’ comes from the German word ‘jodeln,’ which means to utter the syllable ‘jo,’ which is also pronounced as ‘yo’ in English.
The singer makes sounds by rapidly alternating his or her voice back and forth between different pitch registers in the chest and head when yodelling. The notes emitted frequently end in ‘oooo’ or ‘odeee’ and range from low pitch registers in the chest to high pitch registers in the head, also known as ‘falsetto’.
The singing art form is thought to have been discovered in the Central Alps in the 1500s. Shepherds used the distinctive sound to communicate with people in the hills and to herd their cattle. The art was most likely brought to America in the 1800s by German immigrants from Pennsylvania. Yodeling became popular among minstrels and touring music groups from Europe. The trend piqued America’s interest, and homegrown family singing groups like the Hutchinson Family Singers began performing the art.
The best part about yodelling is that it can be enjoyed by anyone with a basic understanding of notes and rhythms. That is why Yodel For Your Neighbors Day has grown in popularity across the United States. Yodeling is possible without expensive equipment or a venue. Simply walk around the neighbourhood yodelling and inviting your neighbours to join you. You’ll soon find yourself as part of a small group yodelling happily on the street.
