Then being forthright ,as I always prefer, culture and custom has decreed
just what a tenor is. Let us not divert the expression. A tenor, is a quality
that we all recognise, so if there was to be a term to describe the CT it
would have to parallel that other strange name...the female tenor...and become
....the male soprano. Is that not acceptable?
It certainly describes the quality. Reg.
