Raul Esparza's "Defying Gravity" Query#0
Posted: 7/5/05 at 10:48pmDoes anyone know how to find Raul Esparza's version of "Defying Gravity" - not the recording - but the actual sheet music? Or does anyone know what key to change the sheet music into? Thanks.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 10:50pmDoubt it's available. I don't know what key he does it in. I play but I can't hear it that well...um ask someone more music literate! I know DOESNT sing it an octave lower, it's a little higher than an octave lower! That's all I know...

i'm pretty sure that towards the end when he sings "i'm flying high deFYing gravity" the FY (highest note in the song) is a B... i'm not positive though
EDIT- i doubt that helps but thats all i know

Posted: 7/5/05 at 10:52pmYeah, I wanna work on my higher register and I don't know many songs that have a guy belting out a B so I want to get this song to work on in my voice lesson. Are there any music stores online that sell single sheet music and allow you to pick the key? Also, does anyone know where to get the sheet music for "I Don't Believe in Heroes Anymore." from Three Guys Naked From The Waist Down. Thanks.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 10:56pmwell once you find out which key it is... you can go to like sheetmusicdirect.com i think and purchase the song...and have the option to have it transposed for you. then you just print it out in your key. i think its three to four bucks per song.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 11:02pmWhere can I listen to Raul sing this song? I went to his website, and they had it... but it didnt work on my computer. Any one else have it or know where else I can find it?

I don't think the entire thing is avaible (well, not that I know of), but that's most of the song.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 11:04pmWow, that's nearly a 5th difference!
re: Raul Esparza's 'Defying Gravity' Query#10
Posted: 7/5/05 at 11:08pmCan I hear this anywhere else? They require RealPlayer, and I don't have that, nor am I going to download it. It must be online some place else...

Posted: 7/5/05 at 11:49pmPeople *have* gotten that version, but I'm not sure how. It was written for him.

Posted: 7/9/05 at 1:02amRentboy, I had to go all the way to Michael Lavine for a copy of "Heroes". If you want it, I know for a fact he's got it.

Posted: 7/9/05 at 9:28pmETA: BroadwayGirl is right. It's in G major. I transposed it wrong the first time round. Updated On: 7/9/05 at 09:28 PM

re: Raul Esparza's 'Defying Gravity' Query#19
Posted: 7/20/05 at 1:18amWOW. That is really reeeeeally high. But I'm proud of myself, it's 10:00 and I can hit all the notes except the highest.
