    Output

    1. After listening to each performance, do you think the singing style of each performer
    differs from each other? How do they differ?
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    Evancho's PBS performance was classically precise, while Franklin's Grammy
    rendition was emotionally charged, diverging from traditional opera. Evancho focused
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    on classical standards, while Franklin's soul background shaped a passionate,
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    emotive delivery.
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________

    2. Why do you think Aretha Franklin performed “Nessun Dorma” in that particular musical
    style? Do you think Aretha Franklin and Jackie Evancho's respective musical
    backgrounds affected the style of their rendition of “Nessun Dorma”? Why or why not?
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    Aretha Franklin’s soulful background shaped her emotional take on "Nessun Dorma,"
    while Jackie Evancho, rooted in classical training, emphasized technical precision.
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    Both renditions reflect the artists’ musical backgrounds, highlighting Franklin’s soulful
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    delivery and Evancho’s classical approach to the aria.
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________

    3. Do you think the song was still interpreted appropriately even with the use of a
    different musical style? Why or why not?
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    Both Evancho's classical precision and Franklin's soulful rendition of "Nessun Dorma"
    conveyed the song's essence in distinct but valid ways, appealing to different artistic
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________
    preferences.
