Jessie: It's a pretty sound. Not quite engaged with the story of the song from the get go, waited until she started singing to get into character. Has a sound that is coming a little bit from the back. Tends to have quick, high breaths. She usually has nice breaths for the higher notes and gets a good resonant sound. Great control of the quick runs. When she gets a good strong breath, the sound comes through very strong.
Chris: Clear higher notes. Great diction. Beautiful head voice! During interludes he is engaged in the song. Almost as if he is thinking of a story during those parts rather than just waiting until he has to sing again. A little unsteady vibrato while singing "moon-ish." Oo is a hard vowel. I really like the idea of focusing on the rib expansion and visualizing that your belly is coming out naturally with the rib expansion. You never want to stop the breath. Especially on consonants, you want to find some sort of vibration to keep that breath moving.
Anika: Very powerful voice. She sounds very supported. During some of the runs that go up, I don't think she was quite prepared for the higher notes so they sounded a little reachy. She has a nice forward sound. I think she gets a little jaw tension on the higher parts. I really like the idea of having a hinged back jaw, not an opened clicked jaw.
