Of the top of my head: we are communicating emotion, and our communication must be effective, our performance is the postman not the letter, what we actually feel is a performance state which is rather more complex than just feeling, or just vocalising. What an auditor gets out of it ought to be not a suffering rigoletto (for instance) who would talk, not sing, etc., but a separate category of stylized vicarious experience. We are storytellers who, by the force and conviction of our performance evoke an emotional resonance in an observer which is a disciplined and aesthetic analogue of the kind of emotion a real-life event might produce. ok, i'll stop now. john
