Last week, I added yet another item to my list of things-to-spend-money-on-so-that-all-our-lives-can-be-better!
This resource is MusicalTheaterSongs.com and offers thousands of songs from 1850 to the present day (with the purchase of a subscription - and my NATS membership gets me 50% off of the annual subscription price).
For example - are you looking for a song for an audition for a girl under 13, written between 2010-2016? Just plug those things into the search engine, and voila! Thirty-five songs come up. Click on one of them to find out - let's look at this obscure one:
It's short (1 page?); it has an octave range; it's not too difficult to play; and it's pretty obscure. In fact, it's only available if you subscribe to contemporarymusicaltheatre.com (sigh, another one to check out), which you find if you go to the "find the sheet music" link.
AND you can create a song list of songs that you're saving. Right now, I have one saved for a project I'm going to propose for a conference next year for musical theater songs for women of a ... ahem... certain age.
This is offering so many possibilities! I can't tell you how excited I am. But I'll show you:
