Well thank you so much for such a detailed answer Liz. Much appreciated.
As a relatively new person to barbershop, it surprises me constantly that there are so many small, some may say insignificant things that produce such an amazing sound. I for one always just launched into a song....pitch.....what was that then, and how would it make any differenct to what I was singing. Well of course if you are singing on your own, I guess it doesn't really matter, so long as you are singing a capella. Bit of a problem though if you start adding voices AND harmony as well.
Along with tuning up there are tall vowels to contend with and all that breathing technique stuff........well thank goodness it's all got us where we are today. Convention........here we come!
Thank you again and look forward to seeing you again.
