At the end of Ahz's comments:
All of which is a roundabout way of wondering what we as contra callers can learn from square dance callers.
Probably a lot. And they from us, since they often use records, which are dynamically more "normalized" than live people playing live music...
But the point is clear: many of us would benefit from voice lessons and practice at theatrical enunciation. I'm calling a teacher today...
