We are discussing various voice classifications. Countertenor is a male voice that utilizes the range of a typical soprano. Some countertenors employ a highly developed falsetto (Nick Pitera below), while others have the purity and range of a true soprano (Greg Pritchard above). Kind of interesting, huh? **Thanks to Rylie for introducing me to Nick Pitera!

Fab Friday Clip 8/26
This is from an old Reading Rainbow. You'll have to start the clip at 12:45...it's a nice spotlight on the Boys Choir of Harlem. Why this clip? Hopefully it inspires and motivates us as we begin our choir journey together.
