Question: I need help with a song I am planning on singing for an audition!!!!?
I am 13 years old!. I am planning on auditioning for the sound of music in my local theatre but I am not sure what song to sing!. I have been thinking about singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow but does anyone have any other ideas of a song I can sing at the audition!?!?!? Thanks a ton!Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
While Somewhere Over The Rainbow is a lovely song, it's not ideal for a Sound of Music audition!. As already suggested, another Rogers and Hammerstein song is a good idea - maybe "My Own Little Corner" from Cinderella, or "Out of My Dreams" from Oklahoma!. I presume you're auditioning for Louisa or Brigitta!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Unless it's very small theater that doesn't care what you sing, DON'T sing Somewhere Over the Rainbow!. It is considerd a Muiscal theater faux pas- the song "belongs" to Judy Garland!.

do you know any other older songs, especialy other R&H songs!? Like!.!.!. "Whistle a Happy Tune" from The King and I, or "People will Say We're in Love" from Oklahoma, or "I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy" from South Pacific!.!.!.

Sing something from "The Sound of Music" matching the part you want to play!. e!.g!. Elizabeth = 2 songs!.
