Cincinnati Conservatory of Music (CCM) is one of the top 3 schools for Musical Theater. This is
an excerpt from their Senior Showcase which is a program staged for agents and casting
directors in NYC to give them an opportunity to cast graduating seniors. These singers use
great mask (nasal) resonance, their high notes are in a great resonant place, and their acting is
very realistic (they are just being their character instead of trying to be a great actor)
Another CCM clip. These singers are in their junior year.
Boston Conservatory is another one of the top 3 schools. This is a video with Katherine
McPhee before she became an American Idol Star. As you can hear, she can really sing.
Another Boston clip, video from one of their showcases.
This is a video of the opening of Songs for a New World from a High School in California. Most
of the singing is really good, for high school students, its excellent.
This is a great video example that less is more. This actress does a great job of just living
inside the character and telling a story. Even when her voice climaxes she's still just living
inside herself and talking on pitch
John Bucchino writes cabaret songs and some musicals. This is a group called the Broadway
Boys singing one of his songs. Notice how well the singer controls his voice, sings softly, but
still looks in total control and easily communicates his story.

singer Steven Tyler. Click here.
Below is a great video of the human vocal chords. Notice the difference in
texture and color compared to those of Steven Tyler, these are a healthier
set of chords.
