Any baritone songs in this show

Hi,

are there any baritone songs in this show? I do not know it that well, thank you.

In short? Not really.

The main male roles are The Arbiter, Frederick Trumper, Anatoly, Walter and Molokov.

Of those Walter is a baritone but has a top A. Anatoly must have a lovely baritone voice but it goes up to some tenor end notes. The Arbiter is tenor, Molokov is base (though a baritone could get away with it but it would sound thin at the low end) and Freddy is a rock tenor.

Have a look at this thread http://musicals.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=42426&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=anatoly+range which goes in to a lot of detail.

Thanks, what are some of the songs that those characters sing. I am just looking for 16 bars

The best one to look up is Anthem, sung by Anatoly. If you only want 16 bars then that would be ideal as it's an absolute show stopper.
