They could be recording promos or something else or backup tracks but there are shots of the actors singing in studio on the promos

Price Eric is indeed singing 'Her Voice' from the Broadway show, as seen in the little instagram videos posted by ABC
He sounds like he has a really good voice as well !

Hopefully they cut Triton’s and Sebastian’s parts*, and turned it into a duet like it was in the demo (only I hope they do keep the very ending--“And at the ball, what will occur…”--from the version on the OBC recording instead).
*I always hated their parts of the song—especially Sebastian’s, ugh.

I really like Sebastian's part ("I'd simply wave my claw and make your dreams come true" was the part that made me cry always the times I saw it live lol), I would be sad to see it go
Amber Riley's Emcee will not only be introducing Daughters of Triton, she sings the whole, apparently.

so it's definitely part animation and part live action, right? I understand wanting to highlight the fact in the promos and interview but did he need to answer that on almost all his answers? I don't understand why the reporter just let kept him going

Hopefully she plays Carlotta. She'll get to sing one line in "Beyond My Wildest Dreams."

But maybe they'd let her sing at the end as credits roll or something.

The message she left on Facebook seems to imply she’s only introducing the broadcast, but hopefully they will “surprise” us and have her sing Part of Your World, as Divinity suggested. What a waste to have Jodi Benson there and not ask her to sing something!
Maybe they can bring back the goldfish from the Masterpiece VHS to accompany her introduction? That would be a strong hit of nostalgia!

I'm missing the broadcast too. I'm moving tomorrow, so I'm going to have no cable and possibly Wi-Fi in the new place for a while.

Looks like they must be turning "If Only" into a duet like I thought. I'm surprised they didn't use "Beyond My Wildest Dreams."

I enjoyed the new lyrics they gave Queen Latifah to sing. I have a feeling this is what the movie's soundtrack will be, for the most part--a duet, "Her Voice" and "Fathoms Below" for Eric, and a reprise of "PUS" for Ursula. I'm thinking now that the reason "Beyond My Wildest Dreams" was left out is because Miranda will be writing a new (inferior) song for Ariel in its place in the LA re-make.
I thought everyone was okay except for Shaggy as Sebastian.
