The folk music of Georgia is has traditionally been vocal-driven with little use of musical instruments. It is one of the most excellent examples of vocal polyphony, for which it was included in UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008. Chakrulo (ჩაკრულო), title untranslatable, is one of the masterpieces of Georgian polyphonic singing. It was famously included on the Voyager Golden Record which was sent into the outer space aboard the Voyager spacecraft in 1977.
