"Into The Woods" Help#1

Posted: 11/19/06 at 10:05pm

I'm ashamed to admit that I do not own the recording and need a little bit of help. Can someone if you have time just give me a quick run down of which character sings what song? And which characters if any are belters? Thanks.

I would definitely not classify the Baker's Wife as a belter's role. I think if anything, the role most suited for a belter is Little Red.

"We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in it's flow, later is too late. Where is the song when it's been sung, the dance when it's been danced? It's only we humans who want to own the future too." - Tom Stoppard, Shipwreck

I disagree...The Baker's Wife is a Mezzo with a belt...or at least not soprano-y....

the witch could be a belter, and Little Red is a character belt I think....

and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

I really think that any of the characters CAN be belters if that's how they are portrayed, but please, please, don't belt just because you can. Your performance will be much more meaningful if you do justice to the role, not to your own voice.
