I've recently come out as bisectional... found out that there's a second soprano as well as alto tucked into my vocal chords
I have always sung, though I didn't get anything remotely resembling "voice training" until being drafted into a small town church choir (I couldnl't hit the high notes so I dropped a third: I could do harmony, therefore I was good enough). I have a voice that was designed for group singing and I love getting the people around me going.
Had a sparsely attended caroling night tonight; will carol with our community college "class" (about 10 people take it for credit each semester, and about 30-40 more of us take it for fun; no auditions).
We had visitors from an Eastern European country... we attempted a song... and the director was most impressed that the "common folks" were singing; his group was professionally trained, and that's who did the music in their section of the culture.
I enjoy the old ballads, too (Mary Cliff sometimes plays 'em on Saturday nights at www.weta.org ) - and tonight, one of the folks at our little sing was somebody from a local bluegrass band, who wanted my email address Who knows, maybe I"ll be singing more!
