I've always sang; if I'm not singing, I'm not happy! My chorale group has recently started back up, and I've stepped down from singing Soprano 1 to Soprano 2. It physically hurts to go above the high F, just a few months ago I had no problem. My Baritone range has deepened a note or two as well. I'm a bit sad, but I'm choosing to look at this as a challenge: Singing Soprano 2 is more difficult, as you automatically want to soar with the Soprano 1s, meaning you must tune them out, but keep everyone else in mind. Yeah, right. As if!
Dae'sThorn, I'm sorry about your loss of voice.. I am a fanatic opera lover with dozens of favorite arias from famous operas. There is one thing I won't do: stop listening operas.. I will do it even if it hurts my affected ear. Sorry, Bert
