"Please sing 16 to 32 bars of a song."
Um...okay. How am I supposed to pick the perfect song to show off my voice, when I only have 16 to 32 bars to do so? I mean, seriously... My sister said to pick one that shows off my voice the best. My question: "Which voice?" Another pitfall of being a mezzo. And being healthy at the moment. I have my low range and my high range right now. Do I want to show off my high operatic or my low belt? What about my rich middle range? Can I find a song that, within 32 bars, shows off both?! And doesn't hover too much around my break?
This is a VERY IMPORTANT audition, because it's season auditions for a theatre that is looking at changing a philosophy about a few things. My audition songs for the show I plan on doing this summer (with another company) are set, but this other audition is freaking me out! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SING!!!!!
