daaaannnggg... that is a BIG list...

i think i'll print it.

Thought I should bump this.

How about "I Don't Care Much" from "Cabaret," and "Poor Child" from "The Wild Party"?

HOLY CRAP!

This is so great! THANKS!

Wait...One Song Glory is a song for baritones!?

Thanks for the list, although you might want to break it down into more specific categories, like "Bass-Baritone" or "High Baritone" or whatever, as it's unlikely that someone who can sing a good "Old Man River" would have the range to do something like "Heaven on Their Minds." Also, some songs on the list, although within baritone range, are really better-suited for tenors, like "Empty Chairs At Empty Tables," the aforementioned "Heaven on Their Minds," and "Johanna."

Thanks for the clarification.

I was wondering myself why Johanna was a baritone song...when I knew the highest note had to be above a G.

I really just browsed and took the songs from the list. I do agree with One Song Glory.

thanks so much! *copy/paste on word document*

Ah, hooray! Hooray for being a baritone/bari-tenor!
Thanks for the list. I'm always looking for more songs.

It's Hard to Speak My Heart from Parade too.
Good stuff there.

I'll Cover You (Reprise)? That's pretty darn high. I mean, I guess you don't have to sing it high. I don't actually know what's written in the music, so I'll shut up.

I really want to sing "What is it about her" from TWP. Does anyone know what the highest note is?

I'm not sure if I can hit some of the higher notes. Sure, I can always transpose the song, but I feel like im cheating if I do.
