  • @ben203302
    @ben203302 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Also, fun fact, the E6 in phantom is pre-recorded due to staging purposes, so any given Christine ostensibly only has to hit that note perfectly once in their career (though I'm sure they do numerous time throughout the duration of their careers). So here, she could very well not be "in practise" to hit that E.

  • @ben203302
    @ben203302 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Starting a vowel with an H sound is a big classical no no. There is a third alternative called "easy onset" where there is no H and no glottal stop. Your E6s sound thin and airy because excess air is escaping your cords due to lack of closure. A glottal or easy onset would serve you better in a classical style.

  • @neetgupta1
    @neetgupta1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Six is extraordinary Tara - you would love it. I've seen it three times (in the UK)! It was written by two music students and it's based on actual facts about Henry the Viii's six wives. The concept is that they are all competing as singers over who had it worst with Henry. It's very funny in places ('Don't lose your head' - Anne Boleyn's song) and very moving in others ('Heart of Stone' - Jane Seymour's song). The Broadway cast are phenomenal - particularly Sam Pauly who plays Katherine Howard. Each song is a different style - Catherine of Aragon is a bit Beyonce, Jane Seymour like Adele, Catherine Howard, Ariana Grande etc. The soundtrack is great.

    I'm not going to lie, and I think I believe that Tara would agree; that at this level the performances and the audio was a bit less polished than I had hoped. Come on people we are performing for the Queen and you had lots of time to rehearse! I heard, and I am not a professional, a lot of pitchy and weak voices but the overall production and stage were dead on. This sounded like a dress rehearsal.

    I’m sorry but there is no one that does this better than Sierra Boggess, she is extremely light and her pitch is unbelievable… you never think she will flop at any point. This one you could tell that pitchy not was coming. Those glottal starts were due to a lack of confidence in the ability to hit… sure it’s a nerve racking event so can forgive this but if she uses glottal live in show… she is the wrong choice for Christine!
    This phantom is ok but John Owen Jones, Earl Carpenter and Ramin Karimloo were the best (opinions excluding originals Crawford and Brightman)

    Sorry, Tara, disagree with you about Lucy St. Louis. I think you were being too kind. She does not have the voice to play Christine Daae. She lacks the power, the range and she lost pitch several times - not just that horrible note at the end. As a life-long POTO fan (going back to the Colm Wilkinson days), I can't give her a pass. Not when she's following the likes of Rebecca Cain and company. The standards for POTO have dropped in the last decade. (As a side note, the notes in her final "ah's" are supposed to be glottal notes. It's one thing she did right.)

  • @Rosannasfriend
    @Rosannasfriend 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am interested in what you have to say about the woman who played Christine. Her voice is more suitable to pop music then let the legit style in musical theatre. She doesn’t have the power and was drowned out by her male partner several times, did not have enough vibrato, her voice was a bit too bright and then where it needed to be the opposite, and that last time that it did not have the ring or the vibrato necessary to be as impressive as all the other women we’ve seen play Christine in the past.

    • @ben203302
      @ben203302 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I couldn't disagree with you more. This Christine does not have a pop sound, she has a legit classical sound more akin to choral music than opera. Very few legit classical broadway singers have true operatic voices (Kelli O'Hara does, Kristin Chenoweth does, maybe Audra). Most singers who use a legit style on broadway employ a bright, more-forward sound more akin to choral music than opera (think Denée Benton, Philippa Soo, Julie Andrews, Jessie Mueller). There are a couple reasons why I think this performance is not indicative of this Christine's talent. 1 -- the venue. There is virtually no resonating space. Classical singing relies entirely on resonating space both in the singer's body and in the space the voice occupies.The space is the microphone. Opera singers do not use mics in performances -- the space is designed to carry the singer's voice to the very back seats of the house. This means the singer has to give a lot less effort and energy to make a big sound. A physical microphone is not comparable to the acoustics of a space designed for classical singing. Belters use microphones because that is how their sound carries best -- the calling technique they are using uses relatively less resonance and therefor microphones are required because even in a live space their sound won't carry as well -- they would go hoarse trying to fill a theatre without amplification. 2 - The weather. It looks like all of these singers are battling some ventilation issues. It looks relatively gusty on stage. This is not conducive to good singing. Even the belters -- who are at a better advantage because their sounds carry better with mics -- are falling flat. These are professional singers who I'm sure at any other engagement with better circumstances are not falling flat. Temperature will also be detrimental to the voice, whether it's too warm or cold. Finally, to your point about vibrato -- saying she does not have "enough" vibrato is kind of a moot point. Vibrato is a stylistic choice used to colour sound. Saying she doesn't have enough is like saying Van Gogh didn't use enough red in "starry night". His painting, his colours. Also -- at the end of the song, Christine rarely uses vibrato on the E6 because it is meant to be akin to a scream -- a directional choice.

    Sorry but the “H” would’ve made me uncomfortable it’s a big no no and I do agree that her top note was flat but she was doing it the classical way in other words the right way

    I'm sorry but that girl did not do 'The phantom of the opera' justice, I would've preferred so much more strength in her voice minus the glottal attacks. her shriek by the end sounded almost like a boiling kettle.
    for anyone who is curious about how it should be done, search for the 25th anniversary concert here on youtube.

    This video is problematic. As several people here noted: that is NOT Leslie Odom Jr....and to just assume is weird. He doesn't look OR sound like him at all. To not correct that mistake is highly questionable. Also the corrections for the Christine were less than spot on. Definitely don't ask legit singers to use breathy onsets. That's a big no no. Lucy definitely wasn't pitch perfect on that performance and I bet she knows... almost everyone was pitchy in this performance, I guess the monitoring was pretty horrid plus the nerves of such a humongous telecast...
