you say energy, i say effort. i think, when bjoerling sang loudly, he
overstepped the bounds.
i am delighted to hear he advised singers to make the best of what they have
rather than try to try to sing in a way they are not (sic).
the only performer i can think of that comes close to rivaling bjoerling's
canio would be vickers.
on richard miller's sonograms...(a fable--->) "well so and so, what did you
think of the concert?" "let me get back to you in the morning on that, i'll
need to check my data first."
on natural, sam snead once said "you have to hit thousands of golfballs
before you look like a natural".
one last point on effort- in comparing fritz wunderlich singing loudly to
bjoerling, if relative sub-glottal pressure could be measured, i would bet
bjoerling had much more than wunderlich (and i make fun of miller's
sonograms...).
