Most large audition calls for musical theatre, both professionally and in larger school situations, specify that those auditioning bring in a 16 bar excerpt. The professionals in musical theatre often complain that singers don't know how to construct an appropriate 16 bar audition, either in choosing a song or in editing an excerpt. With this new series, that problem is solved forever! Editor Michael Dansicker, a composer/producer/music director, is a seasoned musical theatre veteran, with 100 Broadway credits. He brings his expertise and broad knowledge of the literature to this series. Each excerpt has been given a thoughtful, graceful and effective form. No more illegible scribblings for the poor audition accompanist! An enormous variety of literature is represented, from old standards to movie songs to the latest Broadway and Off-Broadway material. With 100 songs per volume, any singing actor, whatever his or her talents and strong suits, will have many choices. In the preface, the editor gives valuable pointers on the nature of a good audition and some factors in choosing songs.

Essential for the Working Accompanist
Finally, a reliable collection of 16-bar audition cuts for baritones/basses. As a gigging musician, time is money, and the clear piano accompaniment with chord names is incredibly practical. Michael Dansicker's thoughtful editing means no more illegible charts, and the diverse selection from Broadway, Movies, and Pop ensures I'm prepared for any request. This book is a lifesaver for auditions.

Excellent Resource for Audition Prep!
This collection is a must-have for my intermediate baritone/bass students. The 'medium' difficulty level is perfectly suited for growth, and Michael Dansicker's clear editing ensures pristine engraving. The 16-bar format is ideal for teaching effective audition cuts, and the inclusion of valuable pointers from a Broadway veteran makes it a comprehensive tool for both rhythm and expressive reading. Highly recommend!
