Just to clarify ... there is nothing I love more than a good belt voice. I wish I had one. And the people with belt voices that I admire the most, when I've asked them, "How did you learn that?", have ALL answered me: "I've always done that. What I had trouble with was learning how NOT to belt and how to mix out of it." And these are not high laryngeal yellers. These are the belters with gorgeous chest-dominant mixes. I love musical theater, both legit and belt. I have belters but they already know to do that. What they come to me for is to mix and I can do that. I can give them belt type songs and have them sing them beautifully -- but they don't want to be limited.
