a still wider variety of sounds is open to the singer who uses
amplification. a good classical singer, using amplification, will have
additional possibilities open to them (providing they have the ability to
take advantage of them). comparing recorded opera, for example, to live
opera at a large house like the met, one can plainly hear the tremendous
difference the amplification in the recording studio, makes. in recorded
opera, the voices are much more prominent than they are in the opera house.
