Frank, thanks for your post. I look forward to seeing them as I always something new.

As long as you're here, can you enlighten me on the origins of the high male tenor soaring over the baratone melody? I hear that in some African music but European music seems to have kept the melody in the soprano range with alto and tenor underneath.

Thanks,
