Good grief...if they announce Adam after the break one more time without producing I am going to utter a blood screaming cry that will curdle their blood...all the way from here...southern BC!!
eta...I have had this show on for HOURS...how long does Sunrise ...no...the other one...??last in Australia!!?? How do grown-ass adults talk about nothing, stridently and endlessly, and not just explode? Is there a high level of burn-out??? This is painfully endless and boring beyond the pale...
Now I low why I rarely put daytime television on....it is brain destroying....ewwwww

I was discussing the pros and cons of formal training for instrumentalists and vocalists yesterday. One of the big "pros" is consistency. When a vocalist has years of solid training and practice under his belt (using the male pronoun because, of course, I am talking about Adam as well as other trained vocalists), he can perform a song with a consistent tone or sound throughout his range. The goal is to have no discernible break between the different registers. He can go up and down the scale and the listener doesn't get jarred when the tone changes abruptly from one note to the next. He doesn't sound wobbly at the bottom, strong in the middle, forced and strained belting the top, and then, wimpy and weak when he switches to falsetto. He can maintain his tone whether singing softly and intimately or when projecting to the rafters.
The other mark of consistency that is essential for a classical or musical theater singer is consistency from one performance to another. Because his voice is firmly under his control, he can perform the song repeatedly and predictably. Adam, for example, may introduce a few variations on a riff or melody line, but if you watch videos from 10 different performances of the same song, they are very consistently sung. His voice doesn't sometimes sound strong on a phrase, and at other times crack from too much push, while still other times, sound wimpy as he backs away from the phrase because of fatigue, lack of confidence, or even illness for the most part.
This consistency and technical proficiency is one reason I feel relaxed and comfortable when Adam is singing. I KNOW that he can do it. I KNOW that he will nail it 99.9% of the time. It doesn't sound like he is unsure of himself. I doesn't sound like he is straining so hard his voice may crack. It doesn't sound so pitchy that my throat tightens in sympathy, trying to correct the pitch. He sings with apparent effortlessness, confidence, and elan. It is so under his control that he doesn't have to concentrate on the production of the sound, and can dig into the emotional arc, interact with the audience, and move gracefully around the stage. This is what I expect from a seasoned, classically trained vocalist.
