This page discusses a new tree for the [[Vocal Relationship Attribute|VocalRelationshipAttribute]]. It's a spin-off from [[Performance Restructuring Proposal|PerformanceRestructuringProposal]] to be able to discuss this easier; for more info about the circumstances, look there. This process is being tracked through [[Ticket:1140|1140]].
This page discusses a new tree for the [[Vocal Relationship Attribute|VocalRelationshipAttribute]]. This proposal began over in the [[Performance Restructuring Proposal]].


==The current vocal tree==
Please note that there is a proposal to add a separate sub-type [[Speaker Relationship Type|SpeakerRelationshipType]] to the vocal [[Performer Relationship Type|PerformerRelationshipType]] and [[Narrator Relationship Type|NarratorRelationshipType]], [[Reader Relationship Type|ReaderRelationshipType]] as subtypes to [[Speaker Relationship Type|SpeakerRelationshipType]], so speech should probably not be included in this tree.

==Left for some other proposal(s)==
The idea is to split up the attribute '''vocal''' into '''vocal role''' and '''vocal range/tone''', so those attributes could then be set separately.

*** Choir (Choir)

*** Backing (previously Background vocal)
::* Scream
*** Harmony (Harmony) --[[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]]: Sometimes vocals are listed as "harmony vocals", and I'm unsure what of the above background vocal categories it would belong to, if any.
::* Toasting

::* Vocalise
** Other --[[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]]: There will always be exceptions. :)

There are 3 separate [[Proposals|proposals]] to add separate relationship types to cover basic speech and its subtypes; speech is here, but it's left to subtypes of that AR to detail various types of speech.

* [[Speaker Relationship Type]] and the sub-relationship types:
* It's currently not possible to have unselectable relationship attributes. [[Ticket:2113|2113]] proposes to make this possible.

==Discussion==

Discuss this here please.

===Terminology===

===vocal tone===

Rapping, growling, lilting, etc. isn't a 'tone' but a specific (or not so specific) style of singing. A word different from "tone" would be appreciated. --[[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]]

=====modern=====

Under "vocal tone", I'd like to find another wording than "modern" for non-classical since I believe yodeling, lilting, and related styles to be as old (or older) than the classical divisions. Perhaps, related to the above comment, renaming "classical" to "tone (range)" and "modern" to "singing style" (or something better, but I'm somewhat tired right now). --[[User:FrederikSOlesen|FrederikSOlesen]]
