Dré

I would normally stay out of this, but the above quote shows a
misunderstanding 1. about vocal technique and 2. about Mozart.

1. Every voice can modify too much or too little regardless of the weight of
the voice.

2. It is only in recent years that Mozart has been cast with only lyric
voices.
