Is the singing "live" in The Festival of the Lion King show?

[That Disney Guy]

OK Disney experts, I have a question: I have seen FOTLK many times and it is my favorite show (next to Hoop Dee Doo). I bought the CD of the show some time ago and listening to it recently it made me wonder how "live" the show really was. I know the Timon parts are not live, but I am curious about the four "hosts" of the show- are they all singing live?

Thanks!

Yes, Kiume, Nakawa, Kibibi, and Zawadi all sing live

 

[SaintsManiac]

Yes and they are truly amazing.

The lead vocals are all live. All BGVs (back ground vocals) are tracked.

Yep, no "lip-syncing" here!

FoTLK has (in my opinion) the best collection of talent of any show in the parks.

I had a dear friend who did the show for a number of years and loved it.

I think personally for me while I still love the show, Nemo had surpassed it for me.

Having seen the show six of the last seven years, I can for sure that it is live. Why? ...because the quality of the singers has varied over the years. There have been good singers, and some amazing ones too.
