I'm entering into a competition and I'm trying to choose my repertoire. I want to do a piece by Jason Robert Brown. I love his style, but I'm not familiar with any of the pieces. Any suggestions?
I'm a Baritone with a Range of B2-F4. (That's the B an octave and step below middle C and a G above... right?) It's actually a little larger than that, so anything that goes out a bit larger than that is fine as long as it's not consistently out of that range.

I'd advise "Letting You Go" sung here by the legendary Philip Quast - live at the Donmar.
Jason Robert Brown is accompanying.

Be careful with using a Jason Robert Brown piece. His piano parts are very difficult to sight read, so if your accompanist doesn't already have the music, consider sending it to them.
One of my favorite bari/tenor pieces he has is She Cries from Songs for A New World
