Singing with volume! Why opera singers sound ‘that way’. Ronnie James Dio is not loud enough? Vibrato. Loudness. Spike Jones does Pagliacci. Jubilee Singers. Opera vs. Pop.
This is by far the longest post JCH and I have ever done together. If you’re a regular reader, you know that I edit these conversations to keep the word count to around 800. Many times I will break a talk into two or more separate posts because the last thing I want is to have these go from being digestible to a boring New Yorker novella. But in this case, the conversation was too broad (you’ll get the pun as you read) to easily break apart. Although it seems like yet another of JC’s diversions into classical music (and worst of all opera, ughhh) there are important points to be made about our beloved progressive rock as well as Detroit so please hang in there. I think you’ll find it interesting.
