| And frankly, Marian is not an extremely high role. It clearly needs a more "legit" sound, but it's not Cunegonde. (The highest written note is the Ab at the end of "My White Knight," and although one expects to hear it, it's actually optional.) And even if Foster had trouble with the higher tessitura as written (the highest notes being lots of F's, a few F#'s, and a G in "Till There Was You"), I doubt they'd have to take things down all that far. |
