Do they really yodel in Switzerland?


Or is that just a children's book stereotype?

Absolutely! It's on the radio... on cds... local performances...

My family used to live there, and my dad got really into yodeling. Now every time we're in the mountains (in America) he puts on our yodeling tape really loud, as we drive by the ranger station - embarrassing!!

They really do.. lol

Yes - it's actually an ancient way they had of communicating from mountaintop to mountaintop...different yodels for different messages.

Yodalllay oooOOoooOooo ... Wohadooooo

Yodel lady who??

Some people do and it's actually pretty hard to do!

Yodel ayyyy eeeee toooooooo!

Yes, they do,,I seen a special on it and they Blow them Long Horns that you have to lay one end on the ground and Blow like Hell....hehe
