I forgot to add, "without producing a breathy soft
whooshy babyish tone," the type of pianissimo that
most young singers produce, one that is not only
totally inappropriate for opera but also unhealthy for
the instrument. To be able to sing a pianissimo in
the upper voice that does not flood the tone with air
(i.e. it could carry over an orchestra and doesn't
sound airy) is one of the most difficult things to
learn.
