gyutomonks

"The bass note which the Gyuto monks chant is two octaves
below middle C, vibrating at an astounding 75.5 cycles per second.
This first note seems to be a sub-harmonic or an undertone
of a note that is an octave below the fundamental tone.
The monks also create another very distinct note,
a harmonic which is two octaves and a third higher
than that bass note, making a D#. The 5th and the 10th
harmonics are also pronounced but less distinct."
~Jonathan Goldman, Healing Sounds
