Are there any recordings of "Astonishing" out there? I can't find any. Has the Little Women cast recording even been released yet?

Yup - it was released two weeks ago

I think it's a high G, but I'm not sure. Maybe an E?

Does anyone have "Astonishing" on their computer that they'd be willing to share with me? I've never heard the song.

High G seems to "soprano-ey", and I've heard that Astonishing is a belty song. If it's belty, it's more than likely in the High C-E range. G is crazy high for belt.

Penny Pingleton's big note at the climax of "Without Love" is a G and she belts it. It's definitely possible. ("No, I don't want to live without LOVE, love, love...")

That's high....

EDIT: Just listened to it and I never really realized how high that was. Have I mentioned how much I adore Kerry Butler?
