Hi all,

I'm an 18y/o female, and next month I'm auditioning for, among other places, WAAPA m.t and NIDA.

Could I have some suggestions please for song choices (remembering that 2 songs should only come to 4 mins)?

I am a soprano with very strong technique and am comfy in most sub-genres of MT.

Is there any thing in particular I should take care to avoid in song selection, and do you have any additional audition tips besides those common to practically every audition.

How many people are on the panel and what is the interview like?

TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU KNOW! lol

Peace,

Jay

I remember David saying he immeadiately switches off when he hears Lloyd Webber, so I'd imagine it'd be best to keep away still.

Gill, I'd say your advice is still spot on!

My only advice would be that no-one can choose your songs for you, they can only advise you. After all, they have to be YOUR songs.

Good luck to all this year's auditionee's

Steve
