audio of me singing - prep for music man auditions

Here are some (not the greatest quality) audio samples of my audition piece (only 16bars allowed!!!) and the main songs from the show I have been working on with my coach .I am working on the songs from music man in case of a callback *fingers crossed*. I am still working on these, so they will hopefully get better. any feedback is appreciated

As I get closer to the auditions, I will post audio AND video, and they will hopefully sound better too : ) Thanks!

My White Knight is a very difficult song indeed. It has a wide range and a very fluid melody that requires precise vocal timing.

I've been using "Goodnight" as an audition song as of late. It's a safer bet for me right now. I think you could be a fabulous Marian.

Someone messaged me to tell me that the audio is way to low, so here is one more try.

I think So In Love sounds nice, but I don't know if I like it for an audition, or maybe just not those 16 bars... I think just because half of the lyrics you say are only the words "so in love"... a little repetitive and uninteresting when you on;y have 16 bars to show off. But I also don't have any better ideas Wink except maybe "I'll Know" from G&D. I think about this much is 16 bars, and it gets through a lot more words and and a wider range of notes:
"I'll know by the calm steady voice
Those feet on the ground.
I'll know as I run to his arms
That at last I've come home safe and sound.
Until then, I shall wait.
Until then, I'll be strong.
For I'll know, when my love comes along."

I'll try it out and record it, see which people like better. That was actually my first pick, but I'm worried others will think of it too. I also looked at when you're in love from7 brides/ 7 brothers
