Hey Rick,
You must not have listened to many vocal groups.........
"But singers also have a different objective in their sound. I've never heard a vocal group line up pitches so that even with soft dynamics, the building structure starts to move. Brass groups can do that (if only they will)."

and My favorite Take Six
Baby there's a whole lota movin' goin' on!
Vibrato is what gives the sound character although not always called for and singers have the same objective as instrumentalist do which is to convey the music to an audience to elicite feeling and thought and sometimes tell a story. Well that's my take on it anyway....
