Bring Him Home from Les Miserables would be perfect.
This Is the Moment from Jekyll and Hyde would work great too.
Race You To The Top of the Morning from the Secret Garden would really show off your high notes.
Break a leg!
Im auditioning for Hair next week, I cant come up with a good song for high tenor to sing. any suggestions?
Does the song have to be from Hair? If not, I would try "Someone Like You" from Jekyll and Hyde, but take it in the tenor octave. It really shows the top of your range well and you can show a real powerful voice when you sing it.
Reply:I have dreamed from the king and I
Reply:"Bring Him Home" from Les Misrebales
"Go the Distance" from Hercules
"Music of The Night" from The Phantom of The Opera
I hope this helps!
Reply:Hair is a rock opera, so you'll want something along those lines. Try something from The Who's Tommy or Jesus Christ Superstar.
Reply:I'd do something from a rock opera as that's the genre of hair (like you didn't know that) Gethsemane 'Jesus Christ Superstar' is enormous but powerful (I may not have spelled it right)
Jesus Christ Superstar from same show, Look at the Lead Player tunes from Pippin all of them are great for an audition like this. Look at a few of Che's songs in 'Evita' and see what they do for you, they're a little weedy sometimes but worth listening.
If you've got so little time please take a listen to the Lead Player stuff from Pippin and also the music from Superstar (anything Jesus or Judas sings) Ohhhh, Heaven on their Minds from JCS is great too (listen to the 'brown album' it's the best) Hope one of these works
