Colin, I am tenor also and long before I discovered that Bjorling said he had no falsetto I was convinced that I also had none. Only head voice and chest. Try as I might especially in the presence of singers who could sing falsetto, I could not reproduce it. It's for this reason that I've become convinced that it is a product of a lower fach. It has always been my experience that the baritones and basses could sing the soprano line, but not me. I have felt left out . : ) This suggests to me that CTs may be baritones or basses who tried to be tenors, but failed. : ) Reg.
