Okay, so I just got an offer to audition for a workshop and if I get in, I get the lead. Yay! Problem? I need a 1930s song. I'm a soprano, up the the C two octaves above middle C. It needs to be 1930s. I can fake belt and it sounds real up to about an E or F. No Anything Goes. Thanks!

"The Saga of Jenny" from "Lady in the Dark"

I actually have the music for it. I'm going to learn it!

My friend sang this. It's very tongue-in-cheek and witty.

Okay, need a new song. Spoke to the composer. He doesn't love the idea.

"Begin the beguine"

"Who said gay paree?"

Both Cole Porter songs, paree is quite stunning and very unknown.

I got a list of suggestions from the composer. I think I'll heed those, but thanks! I'll also listen to yours.
