If, then, the reedhas no marked character as a reed, it may not tmfrequently be employed in accompanying afemale solo voice, and for the following reason. In such organs, the voicing of the remaining stops (Flutes, at least by contrast, sometimesexcepted) is very apt to follow suit and lack decided character. Such reeds, then, will some-times add a certain feeble pungency of their own to the accompaniment (providing always thatthey be in tune), which does no particidar hann as a too radical contrast with the voice. In a word, if the reed lacks the essential qualities of a reed, the premises are altered, andthe principle above stated can not apply. When a Tenor or Bass Solo is to be accompanied, while the above omission of reed toneshould prevail, yet here an exception may not unfreqnently be allowed. This finds its justifica-tion in the quality {timbre) of the male voice, which assimilates with that of the reed to a muchgreater extent than the female voice.
