Voltron: The Musical (Opening Number)
Sauce God 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! Thank you for your audition! Unfortunately, I'm afraid this current audition does not meet audio quality requirements in order to be considered for a callback, and your pitch is borderline as well. That being said, if you'd like, you can record a new audition. If you can improve your audio quality and pitch, then you will be re-eligible for a callback consideration and/or feedback to re-audition to go for a callback. Let me know if you want to go for it. Thanks!
