i remember reading about voices that had found ruin in the pursuit of
wagner. peter anders had been listed as one of those voices and i think it
may have been tristan that was the specific culprit. (at the time, i was
trying to push myself up to tenor so i could try to sing wagnerian tenor
roles. fortunately, i was saved by my greatest gift- sloth.) and being
slothful, i naturally did not keep track of where i read about wagner and
vocal ruin. my apologies.
