Being able to recognise anyone by their voice is in fact an impressive feat that is anything but trivial to achieve.

How we use our voice and what it sounds like can change dramatically from situation to situation: think for example about how different a voice of a person may sound when they are speaking, singing, laughing, or shouting. How does this substantial within-person variability affect our ability to extract information about identity from voices?
