I need 16 bars of an uptempo, and 16 bars of a ballad to audition with this saturday for the role of Emmett. For my uptempo song, i'm thinking "My Next Story" from Glory days. Unfortunately I'm having a lot of trouble finding a solid ballad. Any suggestions would be wonderful!
Please help (:
thank you!

It might be overdone but "Being Alive"?
The Ballad of Farquaad.
The answer is really dependant on your range,
Though since you're going for emmet, I assume that you're a tenor.
Here are some suggestions:
Marry Me a Little - Company
Purpose - Avenue Q
They Say It's Wonderful - Annie Get Your Gun
All I Care About Is Love - Chicago
Beauty School Drop-out - Grease
Wouldn't It be Nice - The Wild Party
Hope this helps, I've used each of these (I'm a tenor myself) and they've gone well
Also, good luck with the audition, emmet is one of my dream roles and if you get him you're a lucky son-of-a-female dog.
