Audra McDonald

5 time Tony Award winner

Many videos available on YouTube - try "Gorgeous" for starters

5 albums or so on iTunes including Porgy and Bess

About to start a Billie Holliday tribute show in NYC titled Lady Day on Broadway

Mother Superior in Carrie Underwood Sound of Music - sang Climb Every Mountain

I have seen her several times live - exceptionally high performance standards and concentration (near flawless pitch, diction and gorgeous tone)

I use her recordings to audition audio equipment - need I say more?
