What about my second question: "Do they sound like opera singers?"
I'm currently looking for singers for my vocal quintet who can sing jazz without sounding like jazz singers, classical music without sounding like classical singers, bluegrass without sounding like bluegrass singers, and folk music without sounding like folk singers. I'm wondering whether someone who comes from the speech-based school might be a such a singer.
