like castrated British school boys. >>
Randy,
Yes! And how about the choral directors who also want adult women to sound
like choirboys? (Vibrato BAD!!!!!) Something's wrong there, too!
Singers should be allowed to sing in a way that is comfortable and healthy
for them.
I won't work with anyone (other than my teacher, of course) who wants to
manipulate my voice.
