...parts in summer stock and off-Broadway until I got a big role in Jerico-Jim. My voice range had moved up a bit, and I was a baritone there. It's still not stabilized. Right now my usable range goes from a bass' low E to a tenor's high C. Who knows?--maybe I'll wind up a dramatic tenor...

The only exception to this was a modulation for solo tenor in "Kalinka," which must have been as uncomfortable for the singer as it was for the audience. Mr. Mickiewicz's chordal vocabulary was thankfully traditional, with the unfortunate exception of "A Maiden's Heart...
