Just a point of clarification, I have not made any comments about
"short-ranged soprano" in church choirs etc.etc. nor did I enter the
discussion about "damaged" voices. You are evidently confusing me
with some other terminology and writing about voice.

Good to read your detailed experience about your study of voice and I
am most pleased that you have found success in that study.
