Here are some listings of songs that might be suitable for
AUDITIONS.
I am arranging them in a number of categories corresponding to the typical requirements of
audition panels. (see below)
(AUDITION panels are always asking for particular songs, in particular styles,
depending
on the show they are auditioning for.)
Or you can go prospecting. I
have a page listing all the songs in my database marked as
MUSICTHEATRE. (It is a largish file, so be patient!)
** Why not go looking for something new or something you had
forgotten
or hadn't thought of! |
Over the years. I have put together a number of categories from
which they seem to ask for songs. There is a link to each category with a page of titles that
loosely match this requirement, and some show titles that explain the style. The most common requirement: 'Sing us an
UP-TEMPO and / or a
BALLAD'
(This could be anywhere from Oklahoma, Sweet Charity,
Phantom of the Opera to Grease. --
It is always wise to ask for more information!)
'Sing us something from
a pop / rock musical' (JC Superstar, Rent,
Chess, Beauty and the
Beast, Godspell, Boy from OZ,) |
Sing us something from a 'JAZZ -based'
musical  |
'Sing us 'something a bit classical'
(Phantom, Secret Garden,
Les Miz - Cosette, King and I,) |
| 'Sing us a JAZZ standard.' |
'Sing us something that is more character-based
(something that shows acting ability) |
'Sing us a dance
orientated song'
|
| 'Sing us a popular song'
|
| Children's
audition songs |
| These are not complete lists be any means. Only
the 'tip of the iceberg'. |
