was going to do beauty and the beast, but didn't, even though i love the song, because of the fact that it's Disney.
Thoughts?
I absolutely love the disney classics. Beauty and the Beast is a classic and broadway hit, so I dont see any reason why you would be embarrassed. Unless it was the song "Beauty and the Beast" itself, that, at least to me, doesnt sound right sung by a tenor.
I don't mind it sung by a tenor. I think it sounds great.
The Disney songbook is pretty sublime. Nothing to be ashamed over.
Part of your world is one of my all-time favorite songs.
"Colors of the wind" - every audition of my life.
Menken wrote Little Shop also, as well as a lot of Disney classics. Hes' wonderful.
Be Prepared.
Do you know how many SAT words they stuck in that song?!
I would second what everyone else has said.
Alan Menken is WONDERFUL, Disney music is great and classic, and Be Prepared has a bunch of SAT words in it. :P
I think its silly not to do the song you want to do just b/c its Disney.
I've been auditioning with Once Upon a Dream for the past 10 years. Disney is too diverse to throw it all out.
