Yodeling, also known as Yodeling and Jodl Song, is a long-span scale singing form accompanied by rapid and repeated conversion from chest sound to head sound. Make a series of high-low-high-low sounds. This technique of using human voice can be found in many cultures around the world.

In Swiss music, Jodl, as a way of communication between people at the top of the mountain, later evolved into local traditional music, probably originating from the Swiss Alps.

In Persian and Azerbaijani classical music, singers often use tahrir, a technique of swinging Jodl between discordant intervals. In Georgian traditional music, Jodl absorbed the performance skills of Kerry Manciulli. In Central Africa, Pygmy singers have added elements of Yodel to their polyphonic music. Jodl is also often used in American bluegrass music and country music.
