Description

Switzerlands traditional yodeling, a powerful expression of identity, has been inducted into UNESCOs intangible cultural heritage list. Originating from shepherds communication across mountain pastures, this ancient vocal art form now shares the spotlight with Italian cuisine, Icelands swimming pool culture, and the Hindu Diwali festival. The recognition, a result of Switzerlands nomination and yodeling teacher Nadja Rasss efforts, promises increased promotion and research to preserve this tradition for future generations.
