Du Rosey: had better be a soprano, though a light-voiced one Heinrich: had better be a baritone, mostly because I NEED MORE tenor/baritone duets in my life (oh, okay, I suppose that Heinrich as the major love interest would be a tenor really in a Broadway play, but sorry, he's going to be a baritone if I get to choose) Fritz: baritone (btw, Fritz is turning over in his grave at this libretto — what do you mean he only has one solo verse in his song, and then Heinrich comes in?? Who wrote this thing anyway??) AW: bass (or low baritone), again mostly because I would like to see a song called "Ruin!" sung in a low register :D and because baritone-baritone-bass trio (or tenor-baritone-bass trio if we bow to convention for Heinrich) would be made of awesome Fräulein von Häseler: soprano, though a richer soprano than Du Rosey Kalkreuth: mm. Whatever voice part Heinrich isn't. (Baritone if he's a tenor; tenor if he's a baritone.)
