Customer Reviews

Great Collection

This whole series is great for singer. These books have a great selection of songs from fantastic shows. These books feature small blurbs about each show that is in the book. One of my favorite parts about these books is that the songs are taken straight out of the show in their original keys.

Singer's MT Anthology Mezzo

I bought this book mainly for the use of one song for a callback. Using and installing the CD software was fairly easy and helped a ton when it came time for the callback audition. It's nice to use the software (Amazing Slow Downer)(funny name)) to slow down, and speed up the tempo you would like to rehearse your songs with. The CDs are not perfect, but it can be put to good use when you don't have the time or money to go to a voice teacher to work on a song. I normally sing Soprano and not Mezzo-Soprano, but this book has many useful songs and is a good workout for stretching vocal range down, if you are used to singing in the upper stratosphere.

Musical Theatre Audition Help

This book is an excellent source for finding and selecting songs for musical theatre auditions. With the help of the CDs, which are included, an individual is able to practice the songs on their own.

excellent collection!

This collection is excellent - definitely supplements the first volume. A must-have for any vocal teacher with students interested in musical theater!
