    Rachel York is one of the most under-used and perhaps under-rated actors on Broadway. She deserves to have a show written for her.

    This is my favourite rendition of 'So in Love.' I like how Rachel starts lower than other versions of this song so that she can show off her range when she reaches that high note. Rachel's acting is also superb.
    I wish that they had the musical recordings of this cast's performances. I really liked this cast, from the character voice of Lois Lane to the complementary vocals of the lead characters. It's always a joy to watch.

  • @bridghidd6277
    @bridghidd6277 11 років тому +39

    Actually she was using a form of singing called Speech level singing in which you stay lower in your voice in order to make your high notes strong and high, so maybe she is an alto and has to stay low to get her high notes right. Don't judge people unless you really know what is going on!

    • @sharonyang5474
      @sharonyang5474 3 роки тому +2

      Maybe she is a mezzo too. Although they are in range, it can make high notes tricky. They need to be planned strategically. Her voice is lovely.

    I have always loved "Kiss Me Kate" from the first time I saw the 1950's movie production starring Howard Keel, Kathryn Grayson and the amazing Ann Miller. Rachel York is the first person I have seen since that absolutely does the part of Lilli Vannessi and Kate justice. Absolutely phenominal... loved it, loved it, loved it!!

    I found this before I could post and loved it. I've just watched John Wilsons Orchestra and singer do Kiss Me Kate at the proms and after seen that performance of this song I had to rush back here and listen to Rachel's far better rendition again.
    Stunningly beautiful both in looks and voice, which has both a purity and warmth about it and what's more when Rachel hits a long note she holds it, unlike some that over warble.
    John if your reading this hire this lady for the next proms and give her some great love songs to sing.
    As the title of the song, so in love with this rendition am I, thank for posting it.

And the final staging and zoom-in on Lili and Fred almost touching each other from opposite dressing rooms is bewitching. Thank God for stage performances captured on (almost) live television.

When I realized it was not on my Trumpet Play List, I thought I'd check youtube to see if someone recorded it; I know the song but needed to hear the nuances. I never thought I'd get a Front Row Orchestra seat of such a magnificent presentation. Thanks to you and to Oya Canli for making this available. ciao.

    See her ''I Hate Men,'' UA-cam video, in which she doesn't go over the top of an already over the top song. And on her CD she does a great job with Sondheim's ''Sooner or Later'' writtten for the film ''Dick Tracy.'' Madonna predictably mangled it in the movie.
    Rachel is multi-talented and beautiful, so why isn't she a big star on Broadway, TV or in the movies? Just shows how crazy show business is, where those with important agents and PR people rise above those with much more talent.
