I never knew this existed. What a treat, you've made my day. I'm so glad in later life Marni is beginning to get some of the recognition she deserves. A remarkable talent. Thanks so much for posting.
Many people are confused as to why she is singing the songs here, when the movie was already cast, and she played the small role of Sister Sophia in the movie and only sang for herself in that particular Movie musical. So, it makes sense that they asked her to run through the tunes simply as a guideline for foreign dubbers to record the score in their own language.
@MarleeAnnabeth They explain at the beginning of the video that she was doing a test run of different songs for other dubbers to do in different languages, it was not for an audition. They asked her because she was playing Sister Sophia in the movie.
What a great accurate singer. All the different time signatures nailed!

WHEN is Ms. Nixon going to do a studio cast recording of the show, singing Maria? It would go platinum within a month!

She also did the demo recording of "I have Confidence", which was written for the film version.

Makes it look so easy. No wonder they hired her again and again.

She's performing at my school this Saturday, and no one understands why I'm so excited. I'm disappointed in everyone.
