Post a CommentLol @ Vincent.. Great review :)
~chuckling at Vincent's comments~ Great article in spite of so little to work with!
When I was a child in Haddonfield, New Jersey, I had a next-door neighbor who had both voice and piano lessons. She, er, hardly mastered those, but I will say the memory has stuck with me. Now that I have a little granddaughter, I am going to advise her of the importance of learning, 1) a foreign language, and 2) a musical instrument. Unless I hear some raw talent in the shower, I may forgo singing lessons for her. It just doesn't run in the family. Funny, too, because I am a great fan of the operatic singing, and tenors, e.g. Mario Lanza. Voce bellissimo!
