" In this patter song, 68 words are sung in a total of 11 seconds!," says Andreou. This Company song has Amy (or Jamie in the gender-switched version) freaking out about getting married. Sondheim really doesn’t want to make it easy. Stand-out performance: Sarah Brightman in the original London cast. "One of the highest notes in musical theatre, this song ends on an E6 with vibrato, being a stretch for most but the classically trained." " The actress required to play this role requires an incredible soprano ability," says Andreou. The top note is a high E6, which even many of the most expert musical theatre performers couldn’t reach. The Phantom of the OperaĬhristine is a very specific role – she’s an opera singer so only really an opera trained actress can play this part. Stand-out performance: Amber Riley and Marisha Wallace, both of whom starred in the London run.
