Maria (West Side Story) Bernstein / Sondheim

Dedicated to Ruth for helping me find my voice.

This is me singing "Maria" from the musical "West Side Story" by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim. This was actually the first song I ever performed at a recital, way back in high school.

HQ version available. Check out my other videos if you like what you hear. And please rate it if you liked it.

Absolutely amazing voice, but the acting is terrible and very 'poppy' :) Its just all a little bit too much :) I hope this sounds fair...

[MithrilCipher]

That's totally fair. I definitely focus more on the singing than the acting.

I...... love your hands...

[MrKurtz20]

Very nice voice.. Seems like not yours.. Thumbs up!

[MrAmyKearns]

Now I wish my name was Maria..

You are actually amazing!

[KateinaKing]

You should release a CD. Your voice is amazing and equals what I am hearing at the Stratford musicals these days.

You've got wonderful tone especially in the lower registry. Glad I stopped by!

I'm a young tenor actually in West Side Story at the moment in the U.K and also have a cover of Maria on my channel. Best of luck with your singing.

i love how you show your body motion because it fits with your voice!

you feel the music!! Wonderful!!!

[JustABoyOnTheNet]

Great voice, but this role is definitely for a tenor, and with this key, the orchestration sounds really muddy. I think key makes all the difference in the overall reception of a piece. Keep up the good work, though! :)
