If you want to hear someone with excellent classical technique that sings in a more rock/theatre-oriented style, look no further than Mr. Steve Balsamo. This guy is an animal! His technique is beyond reproach. He starred as Jesus Christ in the 1996 London Cast of "Jesus Christ Superstar". There is a CD you can purchase with him on it and, let me tell you, it is worth every cent! He also has a solo CD out that I HAVE to get. His website is http://www.stevebalsamo.com and if you can download an MP3 of him signing "I Only Want to Say(Gethsemane)" from J.C.S, do it. He sustains a High G above Tenor C for 24 measures I believe. Absolutely frightening!

Some. From what I remember of her episode of Behind the Music, she was a voice major for a couple of years, then dropped out to pursue pop music.

I seem to recall that Pat Benatar had a classical training.
