Audition songs for a female soprano?

Question: Audition songs for a female soprano!?

I'm auditioning for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor dreamcoat!. I need two songs to sing NOT from the show (ballad and uptempo) but I want them to be similar to Joseph's style!. Any suggestions!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Do NOT sing anything from Phantom of the Opera!. I recently spoke with a director that I work with a lot and he told me that at every audition, no matter the show, he hears so many girls sing songs from Phantom and it makes him hate his job!. Those are very obvious songs that every other girl is going to sing!. You want to stand out! Not just be one of many that sing the same song that the directors are tired of hearing!. Anyway, that being said!.!.!.!.!. Try singing "Look to the Rainbow" or "Carousel" from the Scarlet Pimpernel!. They're both great songs that can really show off your voice but aren't sung over and over in the audition room!. Hope this helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com

How about Popular from Wicked or Memory from cats!? Google or Youtube these song titles and you can see if the song is suitable for your voice and range and if you like them!. They are both VERY good musicals and I much enjoy the songs!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
