Sunday, November 22, 2009. Flute, or "Falsetto" Production. Lighten that sound up. Don't bring up that dangerous weight! People bring up that weight when they want to show off.

Ulf Wiger on Singing. A tale of my development as a singer, and my hobby research into Bel canto singing. Saturday, March 20, 2010.
