Dear John and Vocalist:

I finally downloaded and listened to the sample you posted of
Pavarotti singing a portion of "Caro mio ben".

There is no falsetto singing in any portion of this example. His
softest tones are all in head voice. The vocal folds are adducted.
If this is what some on the list call falsetto then it is obvious why
we have had such a difficult time coming to any conclusions about
this subject.

This Pavarotti sound clip is a classic example of head voice.
