I have no inside knowledge on the recording process, but I feel
confident that it was Kristin's singing. While the studio recording
process can't hurt, I'll bet she's quite good without any
enhancements. BTW, we can quibble about what it means to be an opera
singer, but her bio (see http://www.kristinchenoweth.com/career-bio/)
claims an award in 1993 for most talented young singer from the
Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. I first learned of
Kristin in the recording of the broadway version of "You're a good
man charlie brown" - her rendition of "Why are you telling me" is so
funny and well done.

Cheers,

Michael
