Default Name of music genre?

What's the name of the music where (typically) a female is singing vocally, kind of like a chant? I can't really find any examples of it either since I don't really know what to look for, but it's in movies during epic or sad parts a lot of the time. Any help would be greatly appreciated (:

Or this?

I'm just throwing examples to try and see what you're looking for.

More of the first type (: Like at the end of 300 there's a single woman chanting loudly with background music. Not so much the 2nd :P

Thing is it's not operatic, there isn't intended to be words. It's more of a chanting kinda thing :\

Something closer to this

So like..Tribal chanting kinda stuff?
I think you've kind of found a name for it already in "chanting".

No idea what else to call it.

Not chanting, but still very similar.

Not sure what the name of it is, but there are lots of sounds like it that aren't lyricless but have the same sound.
