Ah, but one of my REAL pet peeves is the voice teachers who refuse to teach the basics for healthy singing to students who are interested in the worlds of music outside opera, and then turn around and use them as examples that singing pop or jazz or Broadway is bad for your voice.

Amen. and regarding watching or not watching the show, I have to say that about 2 or 3 years ago I had the luck to catch the audition show, (where they show the best and worst auditions for the season), the day before I was about to start the 3 day audition process for our choirs, where we were going to hear 400 versions of My country 'Tis of Thee. It certainly got me in the mood. =) -Scot -- Scot Hanna-Weir Music Engraver A-R Editions, Inc.
