Could you help me find some Broadway songs?

Question:I need to put together a selection of Broadway songs for a choir concert for kids from ages 6 through 18 and I've run out of ideas once I picked through Wicked, Aida, and Phantom of the Opera. If anyone on here can think of some suggestions (solos and duets would be wonderful also!), I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance! :)

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I need to put together a selection of Broadway songs for a choir concert for kids from ages 6 through 18 and I've run out of ideas once I picked through Wicked, Aida, and Phantom of the Opera.

Songs I've done with that age group:

Let Me Entertain You - Gypsy
Getting to Know You - King & I
Lullaby of Broadway - 42nd Street
Consider Yourself - Oliver
Comedy Tonight - Forum
Anything Goes - Anything Goes
Seasons of Love - Rent
Happiness - You're A Good Man Charlie Brown
Just One Person - Snoopy
We Go Together - Grease
We're All In This Together - High School Musical
Spoonful of Sugar - Mary Poppins
Circle of Life & Hakuna Matata - Lion King
I Got Rhythm - Crazy For You
There’s No Business Like Show Business - Annie Get Your Gun
I Won't Grow Up - Peter Pan
You Can't Stop The Beat - Hairspray (I edited out Penny & Edna's parts for time)
Heart and Music - A New Brain
Our Time - Merrily We Roll Along
We Are The World (no show)
Ain't No Mountain High Enough (no show)
Reach (For the Stars) - S Club 7 (kids group, not a show)

Duets (just suggestions, I have't done these):
Anything You Can Do - Annie Get Your Gun
Bosom Buddies - Mame
Kindred Spirits - Anne of Green Gables
Sisters - White Christmas
Stepsisters Lament - Cinderella
A Whole New World - Aladdin
Tonight - West Side Story
I'll Cover You - Rent
Written In The Stars - Aida
Who Will Love Me As I Am - Side Show
The Song That Goes Like This - Spamalot

Solos, there are just tooooo many to choose from. If you tell me what voices and ages you have to work with maybe I can make better suggestions.

There are tons more, but I'm not sure what you're looking for and what's ok :-) http://sheetmusicplus.com/store/smp_fast... That site has a lost of songbooks and they always list all the songs in them. I would buy them from Amazon or somewhere else because they always sell them at list price whereas Amazon sells cheaper but this site give more info. Amazon never gives a complete list of the contents.

good luck,

anything from annie would be good: Tomorrow
16 going on 17, edelweiss, or the lonely goatherd from Sound of music
If we hold on together- land before time
Over the Rainbow-wizard of Oz
castle on a cloud-les miserables
beauty and the Beast
suddenly seymore-little shop of horrors
sun and moon-miss saigon

musicals.net

Itunes! Anytime I need to find songs, even if I am not going to purchase them - I look in Itunes. Do a search on Broadway Songs or something like that.

Those are some great suggestions. :)

Some of my favorites:

If I Can't Love Her - Beauty and the Beast

Not While I'm Around - Sweeney Todd

Seasons of Love - Rent (really good for a large group)

Without You - Rent

Come to Me - Les Miserables

Castle on a Cloud - Les Miserables

On My Own - Les Miserables

Bring Him Home - Les Miserables (lots of gems in that show)

Sail Me Away - Lestat (might be hard to find the sheet music to this one though)

Sun and Moon - Miss Saigon

I Don't Know How to Love Him - Jesus Christ Superstar

Could We Start Again Please? - Jesus Christ Superstar

Memories - Cats

Here On This Night - The Pirate Queen

Enjoy the concert!
