What do people think of "Could I Leave You?"

"Could I Leave You?" is sung by a woman.

NO MORE from INTO THE WOODS.

It may not stretch your voice, but will stretch your acting muscles.

I, actually, helped out a girl with whom I go to school who needed a Sondheim song for a class. Most of the most popular ones had already been taken. (She ended up doing "The Girls of Summer".)

So, I would recommend some of the lesser known Sondheim songs:

"Class" from "Saturday Night"
"With So Little To Be Sure Of" from "Anyone Can Whistle" (Check the vocal selections first. I think they have it as a solo.)
"Water Under the Bridge" from the never done William Goldman/Rob Reiner film, the name of which escapes me.
"Multitudes of Amys" cut from "Company"

"Take Me To The World" is a duet sung between a man and a woman."

LOL Who cares if it's a duet? It's a fantastic song for a man to sing at an audition. I used it for years. It also happens to be in a few compilations suggested specifically for tenors.

Meh... I'm being fickle. I'd have to say it's a toss up between Lesson #8, and Everybody Says Don't now.

[C is for Company]

Lesson #8- SITPWG
Marry Me A Little- Company
Someone Is Waiting- Company

Music of the Night.

Sondheim poured his heart and soul into that piece.
