Acting in Plays, Singing/Baritone Audition Songs

Question
Hi Wanda,
I have several auditions coming up. Most of them are for contemporary more pop sounding musical theatre pieces. I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions for some audition songs. It is hard to find songs that are poppy for baritones.

Thanks,
Alex

Answer
Hi Alex...And thanks for writing.  Congrats on your auditions.  

Where have you looked for songs?  Have you googled pop songs for baritones?  Have you looked in the libraries and listened to baritone songs?  

That is honestly the best way to find a song.  I don't know you very well and cannot determine what fits you without actually working with you face to face.  Obviously, that is not possible here.  

I know this is not much help.  But maybe it will give you some more ideas.  

Does this help at all?
