AriaStarSong How can you tell there's a soprano at your door? She can't find the key and doesn't know when to come in. xd There was a good tenor one too, but I don't remember it. In my defense, my director told these jokes last year. Oh, yes, my theater teacher's daughter's voice teacher (there's a connection!) gave a very quick passing joke when she was explaining resonance to Taylor. She was saying that sound resonated in your chest, in your throat, in around by your nose, and that tenors had this special space between their temples where their sound could resonate as well. When I told my director that, he laughed and said it's not just the tenors, Soparanos have it too. I feel bad that I don't have any alto jokes. No one seems to make fun of them... Us altos rock.

sweet.lauren O.o But I just remembered something about men's choir. My teacher tells us to tighten our stomache muscles and support our sound. She says whenever she tells the boys to tighten their muscles, she hears about five people fart. xd LOL sweet.lauren My teacher says sopranos are stuck up and think to highly of themselves, but she's a soprano. neutral Don't really have any sectional jokes, sorry. I'm quite the opposite. I'm almost too humble sometimes. People are like "That was awesome Melody (my actual name, lol)" and I'm just like "You really thought THAT was good? Damn."
But maybe that's because I'm waaaay too critical of my voice sometimes... sweatdrop
Anyhoo, no choir jokes for me... Because I'm not that smart.
LOL JAY KAY.

my shorus sterotypes are:
1st sopranos squeek and suck at sightreading 2nd sopranos always go sharp 1st altos are too quiet 2nd altos...i have nothing
but A1's rock!
for section jokes, you can basically just take any dumb blonde joke and turn it into a dumb soprano joke. but i don't actually believe any of this..my best friend is a first soprano and seriously, every part is equally as important

Oh. Oh. Oh. Choir stereotypes that I`ve found in my choir.
Sopranos: Preppies, complain way too much. Altos: Really nosey, talk too much. (Even though my alto friends don`t fit this stereotype, most of the other ones do.) Tenors: Meterosexuals in denial. Basses: Macho retards.

Some people think that Alto's are more less femine since they sing lower- sterotype. NOT TRUE!

angelofmusic24 CleopatraKaiba Blondebelle2 My choir techesr says to tightlen you butt cheeks, everyone gets an inch taller and gets a really funny look on their face... So funny. My teacher tells us that too! >.<So does mine. But what's really funny is when she talks about the "Italian secret," which is basically, your voice sounds better when you act like you're constipated. It's really funny explaining it to young choiristers cause they give you this look like OMFG!!! O.o O_O we had a clinitian tell us that EXACT same thing... italian Secret... XD

"Soprano's are too loud", and I'm quoting a NYSSMA judge on this one.

The only stereotype I know is that sopranos are usually preppy and stuck up. But the funny thing is I'm a soprano and some people consider me a goth. eek Guess I just broke that stereotype right there. sweatdrop

Momi-chan "Soprano's are too loud", and I'm quoting a NYSSMA judge on this one. Well most of the time it's hard to sing high notes while trying to be quiet. Atleast for me thats the way it is. 3nodding

Taru-chan` When I went to All-State here in Florida, I was in the 7-8 Mixed Chorus, our director told us a stereotype that surprised me. He said, while we were practicing "The Gift To Be Simple" Arranged by Bob Chilcott, (There is this part where the Sopranos need to count since we were the ones who came in first) "Okay, Sopranos, I know that people say Sopranos can't count..." We just sat there shocked! It was offending... But oh so true! Almost nobody came on the right beat so, yeah, the truth really does hurt! sweatdrop eek Woah, that's so different from my choir. Mostly the sopranos in my choir are the ones who are better at music, counting beats and things like that.

Well, you asked for it.
"Basses never practice." It's true. My boyfriend scoffs at it, and says he has no time to so he doesn't count. PSHyeahright.
