Quote: JJ, what you say about separating the choirs is a very good illustration of the developmental difference between boys and girls at that age IMHO. I'm in a college choir and that problem doesn't exist with us. Our tenors and basses are fabulous.
Umm, maybe, but not in the way I think you mean. There have been boys choirs for a llllooooonnnngggg time, and they have no problem with musicality!!! Actually, for whatever reason (and I'm sure we could draw A LOT of conclusions from this), I would say that a great many boys choirs could outperform mixed or girls choirs of this age.
