Voltron: The Musical (Opening Number)
XxBambiixX for Pidge Gunderson (Katie Holt)
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.
Hello! Thanks for auditioning! May I get you're range? Also, would you like feedback on your audition?
Hey! Sorry it took so long for me to answer, but my range is an A3- F5 as I have just checked again this morning, and yes I would love feedback on my audition
Great! Would you like your feedback through a comment or email? I'm afraid private messaging isn't working for me right now.
Sorry, apparently there's too much text for comments on here. Do you have an email I could send it to?
Yes, is your private messaging still not working. If not i can send it too you there.
Last I checked, messaging isn't working still, but I also found that the format of my feedback works much better with email, so if you have an email, that'd be great. If you don't feel comfortable posting it here, you can try to send it through private messaging. Just let me know if/when you do so I can check if it worked.
I'll try sending it again but i sent my email to you through pm already
I'm afraid it hasn't gone through either time. If you don't wish to post your email address on here, you're free to shoot an email to [email protected] that I can respond to with your feedback.
Thank you and I will
