does your school do only Sondheim musicals? this girl has a got an amazing voice. I loved this... bravo

Ha-ha-ha... Of ... ( 1 year ago by leojrevlis)

Ha-ha-ha... Of course not. The past few shows have been STEEL PIER, ZORBA, FOLLIES, COMPANY, WILL ROGERS FOLLIES, CABARET, & GRAND HOTEL.. So you see, the HS is more heavy with Kander & Ebb. Next year will be MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG. AhhhhhhHH! - Another Sondheim!!
BTW - Female, so it's "brava!" ;-}

Wow! This gal has a fabulous voice! Why hasn't a major recording studio signed her up yet?!

Haven't ya heard?... Streisand is out - rap is in! ;-{

I beg to differ ... ( 1 year ago by ljay889)

I beg to differ about about the character being expressionless here. The director here might have directed her to be that way. But you can check out Judith Ivey's brilliant performance of the same song on here, and she is full of expression - and it's heartbreaking. So I wouldn't say Sally HAS to be expressionless here.

THIS GIRL IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

She has great voice ... ( 1 year ago by mesing323)

She has great voice...but for this particular song I think there should be more emotion in the face, and overall more emotion on genereal. Check out the Judith Ivey version...it's brilliant.

bravo! ( 1 year ago by Jessuss1991)

bravo!

i agree with mesing323. the voice is absolutely great, but i think she might be a bit too young for this song. it might require more life experience.

Let's have Music ... ( 9 months ago by ZB2002)

Let's have Music Theatre International include a directive on how the song should be performed. Why don't you have MTI include a stage direction in the script that tells the performer to have strong facial expressions. In addition, let's MTI not allow anyone under the age 18 to perform the works of Sondheim. Why don't you contact the students and ask them if they understood the material instead of posting comments based upon your outside view of the students ability to understand the piece.

Sorry wannasukka ... ( 9 months ago by ZB2002)

Sorry wannasukka and messing for being a little short. I had a bad day. The students really get the material. It's better for them to get 75% of Sondheim then to get 100% of Disneys High School Musical. Let's stop lowering the bar with HS Musical Theatre.

I don't think you ... ( 9 months ago by leojrevlis)

I don't think you were being "short." You sounded pretty much like yourself, and justifiably so.

She's very good - only a bit too young for this kind of experience.

Hmmm... It IS difficult to find a 50 year old high school student!! ;-}
Thanks for the comment.

I was tempted to ... ( 8 months ago by leojrevlis)

I was tempted to write, "OH YEAH.. SAYS YOU!"
Then I viewed Ivey's version... {gulp} - - It was brilliant!
You wrote "genereal." Is that the opposite of "genefake"? TEE-HEE ;-}

Such high quality for a high school production! I love whoever put this together.

What a wonderful ... ( 5 months ago by seth669669)

What a wonderful voice - it is quite moving to listen to youngsters tackling repertoire meant for older ages. The orchestra is indeed a bit clumsy, but still what is left is the excellent impression made by the young singer.

You are awesome! ... ( 3 months ago by MikeyG0901)

You are awesome! I'm amazed that someone in high school could execute this song this well!
It makes me so jealous that girls always get the good songs in musicals.

I think she has a remarkable and mature voice, but if we are picking feathers I would say she looks like she is fixed on a star somewhere in space the whole time, rather then experiencing all the issues around 'loosing her mind.' Very good performance though and a fantastic voice, hope to see more.
