Vibrato in Musetta’s Waltz, and Seasons Of Love

I like both these examples of music a lot! I am heavily involve with theater today, and have been for many years. I have seen rent before, so it was exciting to get to listen to a song I had heard before and was very familiar with. The Musetta’s Waltz reminded me of the kind of musical I enjoy watching, and performing in (thought in English of course). I am classically trained in voice and so have experimented and learned a lot about vibrato from my years of lessons.

            In the Waltz there is obviously more room for vibrato because it is opera singing, where as seasons of love is not. Both songs had lots of vibrato in them, though it was a lot more apparent in the Waltz because of the dramatic sound, high pitches, and long held notes. I am a fan of both vibratos, but listening to the vibrato in the Waltz is so satisfying for me to listen to, because it sounds so healthy, crisp, and clean.
