Vocal polyphony (''sar-nóoslownth'' 'group singing') is an important part of Shalian music, especially in ceremonies such as coming of age parties, weddings, festivities, and funerals. Troupes of singers are trained from a young age to harmonize, vocalize rhythms, clap, snap their fingers and make various gestures. Sung music reflects the glottal stops, stress accent and long-short rhythms of the Shalian language. | Vocal polyphony (''sar-nóoslownth'' 'group singing') is an important part of Shalian music, especially in ceremonies such as coming of age parties, weddings, festivities, and funerals.
