PERFORMANCE NOTES
Vocal fry - technique for adding noise to the vocal production through loose glottal closure.
Diamond notehead = unvoiced consonant
X notehead = closer to sprechstimme- contour is more important than exact pitch.
Goat trill (trillo) - Baroque ornament that requires rapid repetition of a single pitch.
