Positives:
A defining trademarked voice. Powerful belts that are mixed with head voice, making them well supported and Healthy. She can rapid fire her mid-belts thanks to her neutral larynx. Her low notes are also well supported, dark and full. The head voice is resonant and piercing, though it can also adopt an airy quality. Her chest register is capable of hitting a G#5, impressive for a non-soprano.
Her vibrato is well developed and rolling, and can be executed with ease. Her timbre is velvety and luscious, and makes for a perfect midrange. A true gift for Ms. Houston. She is also able to sing complex melisma in all registers, with every register well connected. Pitch perfect in 99% of performances.
Negatives:
Her upper chest register notes can only be held for so long, and her voice can become shrill or unpleasant approaching F#5. Though her larynx is well-controlled, her mixed voice never fully developed, leading to notes at the top of her chest register being cutoff.
Her A6, which is being counted as an exclamation.
A2-C#6
