I definitely agree with Ratliff opinions on how singers go "transparent" with their voice since there is a way you can tell on the singers voice what sort of emotion or feeling he is trying to put out on the song. The listener can obviously feel any emotion portrayed by the song like happiness, anger, sadness or whatever. A way they can tell is by the tone of the singer's voice, like Ratliff said, "It's the most human part of the music, the carrier of emotion".I love the fact that he explains thoroughly the differences between the formalist and expressionists. I did not even know there was such a debate in classical music over those two different perspectives, in which Formalists believe that music has nothing to do with "the work of emotions" and how expressionists think otherwise, music is all about emotions. Ratliff gave an example of a fomalist, Eduard Hanslick, who explained the whole meaning music to him, being a formalist, which i did not agree much with his points.

"Whispering? Yes, but not the yearning of love. Violence? Of course, but certainly not the conflict. Music, can, in fact, whisper, rage, and rustle. But only love and anger occur only within our hearts." - Eduard Hanslick ("King of the Formalists")

"It's all in the tone, isn't it? Tone doesn't demonstrably exist in composed notes. It exists only in played ones." - Ben Ratliff
