Can anyone help with an idea for a second soprano range solo

[coffeenap]

song to be performed by a 14 year old? Looking for something hip, but acceptable for school. Thanks!

3. that wouldn't be a good idea

they'll end up with something that will embarass them for life.

4. She doesn't embarrass easily--give it a try!

5. you mean like classical music? for a trained singer?

[coffeenap]

6. She is trained, but wants something less formal, with a social

or political message; hip but challenging vocally. Thanks for asking!

7. Charles Ives maybe?

He wrote lots of songs that can be sung with male or female voices (transposing by octave), many with certain types of political messages (fun fact: Charles Ives was a big insurance man who invented war bonds during WWI)..... but something 80 -100 years old and sorta weird sounding a teenager might not think is "cool". Prolly cooler than Bach or something though.

8. Thanks! I will have her check him out. It might be what she

is looking for. She isn't mainstream teenagy, so it just might work. :hug:
