Hello,
I would love to audition for my local area's singing talent show.
I am used to signing with a group of people, however, I sing in my 8th grade choir, at concerts we have about 4 times a year. I also sang a solo once for choir, and have been in my school's variety show twice.
However, I get really bad stage fright - whenever I sing alone, sometimes I forget some of the lyrics because I get butterflies in my stomach and I get really shaky; cannot concentrate.
I was wondering if you could help me choose a good piece to audition with - my range is from F below low C (C3) to F above middle C - notes F2 to F4. I'd like to find a good contemporary piece, a musical number, maybe.
Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it. =) (link)

first things first-stage fright. to get rid of it, just take deep breaths and assure yourself that you can do it. usually, as you progress, you grow out of stage fright. just relax.
if you're looking for a classical alto piece, i strongly suggest music for a while by henry purcell. it is a very challenging piece, but if you can handle it, it can work wonders. if you're looking for an easier classical piece, i suggest caro mio ben. it is a classical italian song and varies in voice parts.
if your looking for something more pop-like or broadway, here are song suggestions: all that jazz from chicago, i don't know how to love him from jesus christ superstar, i dreamed a dream from les mis, i get a kick out of you from anything goes, there are worse things i could do from grease, and the boy next door from meet me in st. louis.
good luck with your audition!
