Coffee with EF on Friday morning. She's been mentioned once, she's a soprano, with a voice rather more powerful than nineteen-year-old classical soprani are meant to possess. This has earned her more plaudits than perhaps she currently deserves - I say this knowing that her voice is very clearly a work in progress. What isn't in question is that she is an extremely friendly and articulate person, and our intellectual conversation flew by.

And there was lots of it )

To bring it back to singing, I've acquired the Christina Aguilera album Stripped from a charity shop. There are some very good songs on this album, but they're lost in a mess of melismas. I counted over 30 just in The Voice Within, and that's a song I thoroughly intend to cover in a much simpler vocal style. Or, given what was done to another song on this album, I could say I'm giving it the Alex Parks treatment. Our reader will approve heartily.
