In a recent episode of the Estonian show "Hommik Anuga," tenor Reigo Tamm, alongside fellow tenors Oliver Kuusik and German Gholami, discussed their experiences as opera singers. Tamm reflected on the unusual challenge of singing lullabies to their children, expressing uncertainty about whether his child would be soothed by a traditional operatic lullaby. This raises an interesting point about the distinction between the dramatic and often powerful singing styles of opera versus the gentler tones typically associated with lullabies.

The conversation also touched upon the competitive nature of being a tenor in the opera world, highlighting how they often vie for similar roles in performances. Despite this competition, Tamm emphasized a camaraderie among tenors and noted that there are few of them in the industry. He humorously pointed out that regardless of the competition, they all share a bond as their voices are quite unique to their art form.

As the discussion continued, Kuusik contributed to the topic by sharing a personal anecdote about being asked to perform at birthdays, which illustrates the expectations placed on performers to always be ready to entertain. This conversation not only showcases their experiences but also reflects the pressures faced by artists in balancing personal life and professional expectations, especially regarding their unique vocal abilities.
