Are there any?

I changed the subject since I was educated the perfect pitch is not what I think it is.

Which Jewish singers have such an incredible range and the ability to sing any note as requested?
And don't use Autotune?

I wouldn’t know, they’re all auto tuned
Btw do you know what perfect pitch is? It’s not just always singing on the correct key (which btw there are a few huge Jewish singers who are so pitchy it drives me crazy)
My husband actually has perfect pitch, it’s crazy rare, but it means being able to identify a note without any reference to other notes or scales. Most extremely musical people are super talented and can maintain their pitch in the song perfectly without having perfect pitch

It’s not necessarily something you’d just know. It’s pretty rare, and has to do with identifying notes, not actually signing. So people who aren’t singers could have perfect pitch and we’d have no clue

Do you mean singers that aren't autotuned like crazy? There are a few.

Autotune is a patented piece of pitch correction technology. It is used by off-pitch singers to correct their off-key notes. Don't ask me how it's supposed to work.
Perfect, or absolute, pitch (which was also under discussion but which I could not find once this thread on autotune was started) is the ability to either identify or reproduce a given pitch without reference to any other sound with which to compare it.
Absolute pitch is found in only 1 to 5 people out of every 10,000!
(I know someone with absolute pitch. She lives in B.C. now, has been blind in both eyes since shortly after birth, and has won Kiwanis Festival competitions in both voice and harp.)

They all use auto tune, and reverb, and plenty of other things on their recordings. It’s just the way it’s done now. If you want to know which Jewish singers sound amazing live-Shulem Lemmer is the best I’ve heard personally. If you want to know whose recordings don’t sound so processed, hmm I don’t know I’ll have to think.

I've heard benny Friedman, Avraham Freid, ishay ribo, and more people live. Way way better in person, you can really hear the raw talent and precision in their singing.

No one super famous is completely off key. They have to preform live, and in our world it's very hard to get a name out. Almost all performers got their name out after they spent years of doing live performances and singing at small weddings and bar Mitzvahs.

Do you know how much money it cost to make a CD? It's so expensive, unless you a rich or you have name you can't make one.

There is no such thing as producing an album today and not using auto-tune.

You are not supposed to be able to tell if auto-tune has been used. It's supposed to be a subtle improvement. If you can hear it, it is being way over used.

You can't judge a singers voice at a concert either. They are playing their own in studio tracks and singing a long live.

You would need to hear a singer actually singing in an informal setting.

I think that's what OP is interested in.

Of course voices will be touched up, but some are extreme.
