clueless don | Singing in Different Accents/Dialects (172* d) | RE: Singing in Different Accents/Dialects | 08 Aug 13 |
I have thought about this question because at storytelling gatherings I sometimes do comic recitations written by Marriott Edgar (Albert and the Lion, The Battle of Hastings, Three Ha'pence a Foot, etc.) It is my belief that these simply wouldn't work if I recited them in my Washington DC southern drawl, so I do my best to recreate the (Lancashire?) accent in which I learned them. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me that they are offended. |
