Well said, Don. As we've been over this ground many times in the history of Mudcat and singing discussions, it can only help you to know how to use your voice in a way that will keep you singing all life long. My voice teacher was a world class coloratura and an excellent voice teacher. She not only encouraged me to bring folk music I was interested in to my lessons, along with the more challenging classical pieces she assigned me to help develop my voice, but she also sometimes would accompany me when I performed folk music.
