This technique involves a quick succession of contrasting melodic phrases, often on a single pitch class or within a limited range. Vitsitäät is often associated with free-breathing or long-toned singing, characteristic of certain African vocal traditions. The rapid expansion and contraction of pitch occurs within a single melodic contour, creating a rich interplay of timbres and dynamics.
The vitsitäät technique can be observed in various musical contexts, including song genres like Zulu and Ika music, practiced by indigenous peoples of South Africa. These musical traditions often employ rapid pitch shifts, ornamental phrasing, and changing ornamentation patterns to convey meaning and emotion.
