Richard grew up learning the piano, while Karen played the drums. Both provided vocals for the group, but Karen’s voice was what made the group recognizable. Karen’s voice was described as a warm, rich, velvety contralto spanning 3 octaves. In 1971, the Carpenters won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist.
