Street Corner Opera

Thank you for the very interesting piece on Val Shively (“Don’t Call It Doo-Wop!,” July/August 2021). Doo-wop, or group harmony, has been my music, my hobby and my passion for the past 65 years. It’s gratifying to hear of others who appreciate that particular genre of music. Clearly, Mr. Shively is an unrivaled master of all.
