as part of a course I am doing.
I am doing a course whihc is called singing wth syle, its only for fun, once a week for 9 weeks but culminates in a performance at quite a big cabaret club in Chicago ( where i'm living) it'll only be for family and friends but I need some inspiration on 3 songs I need to study and perform.
I have chosen my first one which will prob be either I Dreamed a dream from Les Mis or Unusual Way from Nine ( can't make up my mind)
I have a really eclectic taste in music but don't know a lot of songs or names or performers so am finding it difficult to think of alternatives which arent a bit too mainstream easy listening... also the idea of the course is to pick songs that ned interpretation or a character around them - so a lot of it is about almost the acting out of the song ...
I am also a soprano so some the jazzy types like, Cry me a River or Feeling Good are too low for me without transposing (which isn't necessarilly a problem)
Mt dh hates musical theatre and I'd really like to do one he can enjoy and me impress him with so would like some inspiration form you singers out there..
I'ma reasonably competent singer but havent performed since I was out school am now many years away from that!!!!
hope someone can shove some ideas my way!!!
