use the student no one ever responds to posts there. Here's the question: Does anyone have any good Rodgers and Hammerstein-ish solo songs they can recommend? I am so overwhelmed with choices right now- narrowing down would be helpful. I'm a mezzo female
Are you an alto or soprano?
In my Own Little Corner - Cinderella
Climb Every Mountain - Sound of Music
mezzo-soprano -
Thanks you for the suggestions!

That's actually the one I was looking at- I love the way Bernadette Peters sings it. It's just so---sad.
"I Enjoy Being a Girl"--FLOWER DRUM SONG
"It Might As Well Be Spring"--STATE FAIR (LOVE this song)
"Sound of Music"--SOUND OF MUSIC
Great- I'll check all these out! Thank you so much.
Try "The Next Time It Happens". Originally from Pipe Dream, but sung by Andrea McArdle in the stage State Fair (and also by Lea Salonga in the LA production of Flower Drum Song).
I also think you couldn't go wrong with "Loads of Love," "You Don't Tell Me" or "An Orthodox Fool" from No Strings (which is just Richard Rodgers, lyrics and music).
My favorite R&H song EVERYBODYS GOT A HOME from PIPE DREAM. Check it out.
i second "it might as well be spring" from state fair!
