Pidge is a super intelligent young teen who's confidence can often come off as prideful. She feels more comfortable with technology than with humans and doesn't hold back in sharing her opinions. Her main drive is finding her family and protecting those she cares about.

While I can work around range, I would peg Pidge as an alto, so don't sing a super super high song. Pidge has a youthful energy and generally has that "love of life" feel to her. While you're welcome to choose any song, I would suggest that just a ballad may not give me the information I need for her. I'd recommend doing an additional, faster song too if you choose a ballad as your first song.

If you are struggling to find a song to sing, I find that Dear Evan Hansen, Anastasia, Heathers, and Wicked have some good audition songs. Don't forget to look at the less common ones! I honestly think "Crossing a Bridge" is a far better audition song than the much more popular "Journey to the Past".

Do a song that feels comfortable for your voice. You are allowed to sing the song acapella and transpose it to fit your range better, but remember pitch matters. If you can't stay on key without a backtrack, don't sing it acapella.

Please leave a comment on your audition with your range (Ex: "My comfortable range is G3-E5. On a good day, I can sing E3-A5." Here's a helpful chart to help you get the note names correct: https://sublimelody.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Full-piano-keyboard-correlated-with-musical-notes.jpg ) along any questions you may have. Remember that I am happy to provide feedback if you would like!

  • Line 1: "Why doesn't anyone ever send a distress signal coming from a cool place? I hate the outdoors! Nothing but sunburn and poison oak."

    Line 2:  "Now, I'll just reset the controls... and it's working for us! I'm going to call you 'Rover.' Follow me!"

  • Sing at least a verse and a chorus of a musical theatre song that shows off your voice.

  • Optional: Sing another musical theatre (Disney works too for this one) song that contrasts or shows a different skill set than your first song. Ie, a different speed, different range, different mood, etc. Please don't send in two super slow ballads that sound the exact same.

I haven't measured my range, but I do know that I have a very broad range. My choir teacher has put me as both 1st alto and 1st soprano. So I'm comfortable in either range. My song is Good For You from Dear Evan Hansen. :)

    Hi! Thanks for auditioning! Would you mind taking a quick moment to check your range? It won't take long. Here's an easy video to help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IejHKpfHso Don't worry about what it says at the end about vocal ranges, I'd like the actual letter-numbers please. Also, would you like feedback?

      Okay, thank you for the video! My range on a good day is F3 to C6. And yes, I'd be happy to take feedback :)

        No problem! And great! Just so you know, you're welcome to use this feedback to re-audition or simply use it to improve on. Not saying that you should feel the need to re-audition, just realised I probably should mention that. (: Would you prefer feedback through a comment or private messaging?

            Hello! Sorry for the late reply. I'm having some troubles with sending new PMs right now. Would you be willing to try sending a message from your end?

              Hello! I have your feedback together and ready to send, but it won't let me send it via PM. Do you have an email I could use instead?
