      I was taught that this kind of singing has nothing to do with control. It's the letting go that matters. "Control" implies a determination and muscular engagement to achieve a predetermined goal.

      @@aaron756 I could not disagree more. I've been a vocal pedagogue for fifty years. You learn the skill sets required so absolutely that you don't control, but allow it to happen. The learning will have become habit and the habit will give you the performance. Any attempt to control the voice is anathema to good singing. Unfortunately, there's quite a lot of very bad singing out there.

      @@martyheresniak5203 I’ll put it this way, if I don’t make my voice work then it won’t. I know how to sing and I can sing pretty well, even if I do say so myself. If I don’t take deep breaths and think about what notes I want to hit and where the vibrato needs to go then it will never happen. If I don’t make my voice do that then it never will. Maybe singing is more effortless for some but for me I have to tell my voice what to do. Idk how you sing.

    Can't believe I only found this today. With the Theorbo's tuning it's probably a pipe dream but if it were possible I'd love to hear you and Nicholas do an arrangement of one of the Finzi songs. There's already a great arrangement of Britten's folk songs for guitar and voice but the fantasy of showing off the Theorbo's dynamics on some other 20th century art songs is pretty compelling - perhaps because it'd be so damn hard.
