How to use "Toneless" in context?
When people use the word "toneless," they are typically referring to a musician or vocalist who does not use vibrato or other expressive techniques. This can be seen as a limitation, as tonality is one of the most important elements of music. For some, tonelessness can denote a lack of ambition or creativity. To some, however, tonelessness can also be seen as a sign of great skill.
There are a number of different ways to achieve tonelessness. Some musicians simply omit vibrato completely, while others use very subtle techniques.
