Issues addressed include: the relationship between the meaning of a song's words and its music; the performer's role and ensuing gender complications, social ontology, and personal identity; the performer's ethical obligations to audiences, composers, and lyricists; and the metaphysical status of isolated solo performances compared to the continuous singing of opera or the interrupted singing of stage and screen musicals.
