There is NOTHING liberals cannot destroy.
So, we will no longer be able to enjoy the deep resonance and gorgeous voices of an all mens choir anymore?? Its official......the Libs are He** Bent on taking all the fun out of life! (I LOVE the richness of ANY SONG, when sung by all man :* (
By coincidence, I’ve heard to the Whiffenpoofs often. They have wonderful voices and are a pleasure to listen to. I don’t know if they are gay or not—maybe some of them are—but they are wonderful performers.
I HAVE known one girl who could sing bass - real bass, not baritone. But she was kind of a one-off, never heard another. I can sing 2nd tenor but I have to fudge the notes below C#.
When will Hollywood and the Olympics end their more than century-old tradition of male-female only competition?
After all Women are just as good as men
Right ?
Right ?
It's not clear to me just what is being done here. Is the (invented and nonsensical) problem that biological men, currently identifying with and impersonating women, have been prohibited from Whiffenpoofing? (And vice versa for the women impersonating men?) That's hard to imagine. But ... were they expected to wear tuxes, apparently the group's usual uniform, and thus look masculine? If all that's at stake is letting the female impersonators wear a dress on stage, I don't suppose it will make any musical difference. And again, vice versa for the girls' group.
When I sing baritone, I sound more like a baritone, but you can still pick out that there's a woman singing.
And I have a relatively rare voice - true tiefer Alt, range about C# in the bass clef to C in the treble. I can sing a limited number of Es and Fs in the treble, but I'm really in my falsetto and my account gets overdrawn pretty quickly.
