What are some good audition songs?

Question

I'm auditioning for Guys and Dolls and you need to sing a song with sheet music so what song would be good? I was thinking about singing Tomorrow from Annie. Help?

Answer 1

your favorite song

Answer 2

"Tomorrow" is not really a suitable song for Guys and Dolls.  Look at other Loesser shows - How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is probably his best-known show other than G&D.  "Paris Original" or "Happy To Keep His Dinner Warm" (particularly if you want the part of Adelaide) would be two good songs from that show to audition with.  Break a leg!

Answer 3

I think you should stick to a song which goes with the theme and sing something which projects your voice nicely.

Answer 4

It depends on the kind of voice you have but it is always a good idea to sing a song similar to the genre of show you are auditioning for but is equally as important that you are comfortable with the song and know it well.

If Tomorrow works for you then go with your gut instinct.
