Abstract :
[en] Popular song sung by 166 french occasionnal singers. The participants sang the French version of the popular tune “Happy Birthday”, without a compulsory tonality, after production of two glissendi (a continuous glide from a low note to a high note and vice versa). The aim of these glissendi was to warm up the vocal organs, to verify the vocal capacity of the subjects and to encourage a lack of inhibition in front of the experimenter and the recording equipment. The sound recordings were made using a microphone (Sennheiser HS2) and a digital recorder (Marantz Professional Solid State Recorder PMD67).
