Ordinary people sing, because singing is one of the most ordinary things we humans do. We evolved to do it. Over the years these rounds have made musicians and non-musicians into singers. Students, friends, fellow musicians, all kinds of people have sung these rounds together. We've sung about healthy platypi, cows on vacation, tofurkey, ze wudka, ending war, salvia, scarlet tanagers, one more day, and the town of Paradox New York. We've asked David Mahler's big question about why we sing, and my more practical "what time does the bell ring?" I can't remember a single case of someone regretting having sung. Nobody's ever the worse for having sung with another human being.

From Larry Polansky's liner notes to the wulf.'s first record, Rounds, available soon here. My piece, possible round(s), is featured alongside work by a bunch of other friends.
