It’s very simple: she has swallowed a theremin!
It looks like she knows how to play a theremin as well.

In the future, this technique will enable opera houses to contract much less singers for their otherwise expensive productions, thereby meeting the new requirements under grave subsidy cuts.

WOW. It’s really impressive ! I want to respond to Anne-Marie with a video where I can sing & whistle two independent parts, but I don’t know how… any possibility, Norman ?
Thanks. And long live Slipped disc !
