"I can totally understand the strategy behind having Christine's final high E in the title song lipsynched. Yes, I know that Barbara Cook sang those Eb's in Candide every performance. But most singers wouldn't want to have to do that - even opera sopranos who specialize in that kind of coloratura range are not asked to do that every night."

Very true, but then one could argue that Lloyd Webber shouldn't have put a high "E" in the score. Really, did that note HAVE to be that high?
