Posted: 1/30/06 at 3:30pmJust curious, what about singing "Hold On" from Secret Garden? Any better ideas? I'm a mezzo/belter.

as someone who sits on the other side of the audition table I would be very impressed if someone sang "every story..." from Aida.
Start at "this is a story of love..."
It would really show your rang (required for the narrator) and really get everyone's attention
just my 2 cents...

Posted: 1/30/06 at 3:51pmi would sing a song that shows that you can hit very high notes. Maybe "the beauty is" from LITP

Posted: 1/30/06 at 3:56pmDon't sing the opening to Aida. There are likely to be many people singing it.

Maybe something like 'Rainbow High' from "Evita" or even the "He supports you for he loves you" parts in 'A New Argentina'.

Posted: 1/30/06 at 4:39pmI used "Unexpected Song".

"Boring, but..."
Only for the undiscerning and taste-free.
Magenta, you'd do well going in with something that displays not only range but also demonstrates storytelling abilities, like JRTO's suggestion. She is a narrator after all.
