Peter Phillips
The members of Vox are Ann Arbor's early music champions. They invited Peter Phillips of the Tallis Scholars to lead a masterclass today, which I attended, at the Chapel of the Trinity at Concordia. The chapel provides an ideal acoustical environment for voices, which Phillips noted.
Phillips commands the best from singers because of his phenomenal ears. In fact, when they are unfurled, the span eight feet. Seriously, he (gently) lets singers know they will get away with no error of pitch, timing, or vowel.
The wifeösphere and I will be at the Tallis Scholars' concert tonight with some friends. Hope to see you there, at St. Francis Catholic Church, the acoustics of which are slightly less than perfect. Oh well.
Umie the Umlaut says, "ask your doctor about the Fredösphere!"
