Customer comments on this selection.
 Great arrangements with none of the hassel!
Too many singers go into auditions only to be cut off before the big, climactic moment in their song. With this pre-cut 16-bar audition book, you'll have the most powerful moments in your piece all laid out and ready to let you shine!
 NOT GOOD
You should not buy this book. Although this may seem good for auditions, most directors and pianists are going to want the whole song. Some might even refuse to play for you unless the whole song is in there. And what happens if they want you to sing the whole song? YOU CAN'T! Trust me, this is not a good thing.
 The 16-Bar Theatre Audition Book
Although I have not actually auditioned using this book, I was impressed with the songs included in the book . . . nice variety. Also, I am a 2nd soprano at best and the songs are very much in my range. The vocal arrangements are such that you can easily demonstrate your talents in 16 bars. I will definitely be using it in future auditions.
okay for community theatre or non-professonals only
These volumes are NOT useful for any aspiring professional or college level music theatre student. The cuts are not from the actual scores and leave out much useful information for the student and accompanist. I have been a professional audition accompanist for many years and have been dismayed to see these books hit the market. If you want a good 16 bar cut that shows off your individual abilities, talk to your music director or someone who does this for a living.
Great addition to your theatrical library
This is a great audition resource, as it not only has the songs already broken down into audition-ready length, but it also includes a wide variety. There are pieces from shows old and contemporary. And although some of the music goes a bit over 16 bars, this is generally nto a big deal. It's maybe two-four bars over. Directors are typically more concerned with your voice than PRECISE bar count. These selections keep it close, though.
