[nabs-l] Looking for braille files of mezzo soprano/soprano theatre pieces

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi all,

I've already posted this to lists including perform-talk and menvi
etc, but I'm looking around for any musical theatre pieces for a
soprano or mezzo soprano singer.  I don't think I have access to the
transcriber I've gone to for years so while I'm sorting that out I'm
still looking for anything other voice students in high school,
college, etc might have I can bring to my voice lessons.  Thanks in
advance for any files anyone can send me off list.  Though I mention
specific titles my voice professor thought would be good for me, I'd
be open to getting anything so I can take it to him this week and see
what he thinks of trying it.

Here's the original post:
Hi all,

I'm looking around for any files I can find of musical theatre pieces
for a soprano or mezzo singer.  My voice teacher is doing a lot of
repertoire with me this semester that is in the pop genres (because
I'm a music therapy major) and so I suggested doing some musical
theatre both because I have an interest in that music and because it
might help a bit with teaching me to be a little more expressive when
I play and sing.

His suggestions included Nothing from A Chorus Line and My New
Philosophy from You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, but since I've sung
the latter before the one we're really hoping to find is Schroeder.
This musical theatre piece will probably be what I end up singing at a
recital for voice students who are not majoring in voice for their
primary instrument at the end of the semester.  I think the acting in
both Nothing and Schroeder is flexible enough that I could get some
good expression out of those pieces, and it will help us cover that
base in addition to the work on my music therapy rep and the Italian
piece he's picked out for me.

Thanks in advance.  I don't currently have a bard account so any
resources would be appreciated.
