Philp Quast, love the man, does not have a "pure" voice. his vibrato is extremely overpowering and he tends to go slightly off-key on long vowels.
I don't think anyone has a "perfect" voice. are you talking about the sound they're producing? or the actual technique?

My thoughts would be something along the lines of Sandi Patty, Barbra Streisand, or Julie Andrews.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

firstly in reply Philip Quast is an Australian who in the West End has been in Les Mis, Hunting of the Snark, The Fix, The Secret Garden Sunday in the Park. and La Cage.
secondly what i meant and I mean for me personally, someone, who isin't a belter. but someone who sings beautifully, who captures the words and has that lilt, that dream like quality.
Another who always did it for me is the irish performer Siobhan McCarthy, original Svetlana in London Chess, just a gorgeous voice.

I just don't think there is "perfection".
the closest thing to that is Pavarotti, my friends.
even though I am obsessed with Philip Quast's portrayal of Javaret, he is far from "pure" and "perfect"

When I think pure voice I think of Lea Salonga.

Posted: 4/30/08 at 5:25pm
Lea would be my choice for female

Ah, yeah, Barbara Cook is quite pure in my mind.

well.. I'll go with a tie between Auda and Kelli
I'm obsessed with Gavin Creel and Cheyenne Jackson but they don't have "pure" voices - they are much more pop and contemporary styling.
I think I'd have to go with Mr. Mitchell as well

As far as perfect voices well I don't think that anyone has a perfect voice but Lea Salonga comes pretty darn close.
As for pure voices I will say that Dee Roscioli(Chicago Wicked) has one of the purest voices I ever heard.

I agree that 'perfect' and 'pure' are pretty subjective
For me it would be Philip Quast, Mandy Patinkin, Michael Ball and Luciano Pavarotti
No contest
To me, their voices are as beautiful as it is possible to be
It was nice to see (almost) all my favorites already mentioned by others

In terms of purity, I'd have to go with Lea Salonga and especially Liz Callaway, with Megan McGinnis a rising talent with similar vocal qualities. As for men... I'm not sure I can think of a man with equivalent timbre.
