The Adyghes, in contrast, are mountain people; therefore, Adyghe ethnic music is characterized by rather short melodic respiration and a special type of performance which combines two components, namely a high man's voice (of the leading singer) and the low attending voices (for supporting vocal parts).
The scheme of traditional Adyghe songs resembles a mountain topography where the basement of mountains is a drone, that is a sustained supporting voice, and the pitch phrases of a leading singer resembles the pointed peaks of mountains of different altitudes (Figure 1).
