Hey guys, I am also posting this like others have in the past for any ideas for songs to sing, I am a bass. I would really appreciate anything at this time, thanks guys :)
Just for some background info.
Open call post on the SA myspace. They use gmail?
Also, if anyone has ideas for a 16-year-old mezzo, I would eternally be in your debt. :]
Any suggestions for a high-baritone? I'll probabaly just send an email, and go to the NYC open calls.

There aren't really any parts for baritones in the show, so I would suggest singing as a high a song as you can that still sounds comfortable in your range.
I auditoned at the NY open call back in April and they are looking for rockish songs or folky. I sang 'I Don't Wanna Be' by Gavin Degraw and I know a lot of people brought their own instruments and such and were able to play original material. My friend sang 'Chariot' by Gavin Degraw and a I know I was told by someone they are sick of Beatles songs, so I don't know.
I'd say try a few different songs before picking your final. I know I went through a ton of options before landing on what I chose. Best of luck to you! It's a great experience!

I actually heard they love beatles songs, but they may be sick of them by now haha.
They have the Beatles catalouge as a back up or something.
I don't know, I've heard conflicting reports.
Perhaps they do.
If you are what they are looking for....it doesn't really matter what you sing. You need to find what shows off your strengths.
