Polyphonic songs are perhaps the most extraordinary contribution to world heritage that Georgia has to offer. Agaisnt all odds, these ancient songs have survived and outlived the influence of the many conquering civilizations that have ruled over Georgia, including 70 years of communism. Today, Georgian singing continues to accompany every aspect of life, from work in the fields to funeral wakes, from weddings to baptisms.
