Above Below the Register

Check out this Inca princess from Peru. In her heyday, she recorded an astonishingly wide vocal range of more than four octaves, from B2 to C♯7 and could hit notes in both the low baritone and upper coloratura register.

I've been on this kick for a minute...asking "what makes me an artist?" "what makes someone a singer?" DEFINE define DEFINE. I sing - but am I singer if I don't persue it as much as say...the dance?

A special person told me - as long as you're putting yourself completely into what you're doing - as long as it's got soul...it's yours - your art - your craft. well, it was said much more articulately and eloquently than that...but you get the gist.

just hit play already.
