@@jerrymouse1117 Hello Jerry - It took me years to get thoses "effortless" high notes LOL! I always had a very large range and was able to move the voice (coloratura) easily. Teachers had a hard time trying to assign a "fach" to my voice because I really was mostly a "high" mezzo. Which is what we eventually focused on because my middle voice was according to my teacher the most beautiful sound wise. We sought out all material that was very soprano-ish without having that designation, which mean't we focused on a lot of the French Mezzo stuff because it IS very soprano-ish. This aria from "Faust" is a perfect example of a Soprano aria not focusing on the higher part of the range, it's mostly written in the middle voice. My vocal tips....are to fully understand and accept your vocal attributes and weaknesses. Every voice has strengths and weaknesses. Focus on perfecting the strengths and steer clear from repertoire that is too revealing of your weaknesses no matter how much you "love" that aria or song, not everything is meant for all voices. Then study hard to perfect them. My voice came together well when I got "out of my throat" and focused on my head voice more to create my sound. I also applied my new head voice technical aspect to the Panofka excersises which are great for building breath support and lots of control and lots of stamina. Best Wishes! Nancy

Also ...in the film I actually had to redub the film cut in Calif. after recording in Hungary w/ National Hungarian Orchestra. In the film the music editor was cutting out mili-seconds of the performance due to the stage performer's inability to lip synch to my longer phrasing. She was not a singer and so uncomfortable lip synching longer vowels. So I instead was tasked with looping to her mouth movements. Perhaps that is what you are feeling that the aria is a bit rushed....it is! In the Soundtrack I was able to perform the piece at my original tempi.

I do believe you've never seen the entire film; The Phantom does indeed have a mask in this movie, it just so happens the phantom is not in this scene.

Of course, I am a Phan myself, but perhaps I am mistaken, and this is a version I have never even heard of before, though just from various searches, I cannot seem to find that I am.Not to come off cocky or rude, though I'm afraid I am, I must say, just please, go over the facts before commenting.Anyway, the phantom in this movie has a full mask, not just half of the face like the play, and this is the first version of the Phantom I had ever seen,or read for that matter. It was this film that introduced me to the greatness that IS Phantom,and I politely (Though I'm afraid I say this rudely in my ranting state, which I'm only in due to the love of typing) that you try to watch the entirety of things, before making assumptions.
