My friend is looking for recordings of broadway actressing singing more classical/opera stuff rather then their typical broadway stuff.

Check out Patti LuPone's recording of Jake Hegge's To Hell & Back. It is recorded with the Philharmonia Baroque. It's amazing.

We can sure help if you spell the word "either" right.

You can find Lauren Molina singing part of "Dome epais le jasmine" from Lakmé on her website. I wasn't that impressed with though, to be honest.

Barbra, of course, has a classical album:

And the last song on Linda Eder's Storybook album--Vole Mon Age--is very classical sounding:

I'm not sure if Audra McDonald has some more classical music on her CDs, but there are vids on Youtube of her singing some opera.

I'm absolutely obsessed with her performance of this song. One of the greatest I've ever heard.

Cheno has recorded "Glitter And Be Gay" from CAND
IDE. If that isn't an aria, then I'll eat my head.

Candide is an operetta, so yes, it's an aria. A lot of Broadway actresses have recorded it, though.

Search for Daniel Rodriguez's recording of "In The Presence." There is a very beautiful duet of "Pie Jesu" with Lea Salonga.

Does "Beyond the Blue Horizon" count? (Christine Ebersole performed it)
