Erin Pickering sings "A Piece of Sky" for student recital

Erin, that was superb! You have a glorious voice. My only advice would be that the very end of the song could have been much more emotionally gripping if you would have belted and held the last notes. The lyrics call for a cry from the heart, and an ending that is more of a denoument in the singing doesn't quite fit. But easy for me to say that since I didn't have to perform such a difficult song in front of a crowd. Congrats, and great job!

I would have liked to hold it out a lot longer at the end, but I was a bit nervous and my breathing is the first thing to go. :) And my belting voice doesn't actually go that high, so I was singing in what is called my "mix"... it's a strong head voice sound. Don't know if that makes sense. But thanks for your feedback.

Thank you! I loved that song! Barbra Streisand has one of the best voices out there. You should see Yentl if you haven't already!
