The Smile & Vibrato of the human singing voice
"The smile and vibrato. We have a good analogy in the smile. The smile is nature's outlet for good will, the attitude of "I like you," "I like it," or "I am well disposed." [...] So it is with the vibrato. The pulsating quality is nature's language which tells the truth. It can be imitated, but the imitation is discernible. [...] The analogy between the smile and the vibrato is fundamental. They are the natural expression of well-being, good will, and genuine feeling."
Seashore, C. (1936, p.111)
