Posted: 7/8/04 at 8:19pmI was wondering if anyone knew of any good ensemble musical numbers for 8-12 GIRLS. And Forget about the boy is not an option. unfortunately. Also, it's for a competition so we're also looking for stuff that's not so overdone. Please respond! We're desperate!!!

Posted: 7/9/04 at 9:35amWhat about SPA Music from Nine? (someone correct me if thats the wrong song title, please) I believe it's the opening number, and has all the women mirroring the instruments in the orchestra, making beautiful harmonies - its a thrilling piece of music, when performed well.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"
Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Posted: 7/10/04 at 2:46pmYou could also look at "The Wedding Ceremony" (Dju Vui Vai) from Miss Saigon. When performed right it is absolutely stunning.

So my dear you think you can get to Broadway. Well, let me tell you something. Broadway has no room for people like you. Not the Broadway I know. My Broadway takes people like you and eats them up and spits them out. My Broadway is the Broadway of Merman, and Martin, and Fontaine, and if you think you can build yourself up by knocking other people down... ...GOOD LUCK... Seinfeld
