dre, lauren, fellow vocalisters,
i don't remember if it were richard miller or jerome hines but, one of them had a list of physical criteria that were distinct advantages for singing (i'm thinking more that it was miller). one of the things he listed was 'vocal folds of equal length'. it is hard for me to imagine that there are too many people in the world with vocal folds of exactly equal length so, i don't know how different their lengths would have to before there was a noticeable difference.
i have only seen this (vocal folds of differing lengths) mentioned that one time. i don't recall seeing in any of the other books i've read. and, i don't recall the subject ever coming up on 'vocalist' before. dre, i'd be curious to know how much of a study the singer you mentioned, made of this.
mike
