It's not perfect, but not bad for a first-try recording. I really don't know the middle section ("It's all very well...") so I was pretty ... all » much making it up; I apologize if I completely butchered it. Also, I forget lyrics quite frequently- sorry about that. And yeah, my room's a mess.

So, yeah... Uh, be harsh, I don't mind. I'm performing this at a studio concert type of thing in a few months. I'm flat all over the place (any ideas?) and the accompaniment sucks (which I unfortunately can't control). - Caitlin / Cait -

Smaller things, keep the sound forward and be careful not to chew your words up too much. Keeping working and give us an update! Briana

I'll record this again soon, hopefully. If not, I'll make someone tape it at the concert. - Caitlin / Cait -

It's actually harder to sing correctly standing up. For nearly the entirety of Act 3 of La Traviata, Violetta sings from a reclined position. Someone needs to write musical theater roles like that. Briana
