What a sloppy mix of fact, fancy, and myth! (Unfortunately, TIME has not gotten one iota better in the last 63 years: Along with Spellchecker in their computers, they need a Factchecker feature.) I've never thought of voicing as "fluffing up the felt." That is actually funny. What about this business of tuning a piano differently if it is to accompany a cello vs. a violin? Maybe if one is playing Brahms and the other is playing Monteverdi!
