Judy, was it the performer's first concert? Perhaps in practice she's much
better, but was nervous. Give her time to improve.

Now, here is my question, somewhat in regard to the above.

>From what I've read, when you take voice lessons, you start off with
classical/art songs. When, and how, does one move on to another genre? For
instance, what if you're interested only in jazz, or country, or in the case
of some of our younger listers, rock? If we are all started on classic--how
do we evolve?

Also, those who sing Sondheim and other Broadway music, is the transition
difficult? I enjoy singing Broadway, and wonder if I'm making the
transition as I should. The same goes for those on the list who sing
karoake?

Thanks,
Nancy
