An alluring and potent charm
Article Abstract:
The real art of singing is not showing that it is an art, according to German counter-tenor Andreas Scholl. He is seen by many as the greatest counter-tenor of his generation, despite the fact that there is no tradition of singing counter-tenor in Germany. He believes that the audience should never be aware of the technical difficulties associated with singing, and feels that all singers should have a strong personal idea of how they can work with their voice.
