Please help me!
I've got an audition coming up, and I need to have two songs (violin). I need one song of lyrical nature, and one of technical nature, please explain to me what those are! I have one song in mind, "You Raise Me Up" Josh Groban, but I need to know something else too. Please help me! It's a solo audition, and I don't want to play anything too hard. Sorry, I just need a lot of help! No sarcasm or rudness please! Thanks!

Myself and several friends are planning to do this in aid of charity, and I know that several students from Southampton union did it in the past. Any idea how long it would take, without a break?

I cannot figure out the extended methaphor in this passage.

Now I am alone.
O, what a rogue and peasant slave am I!
Is it not monstrous that this player here,
But in a fiction, in a dream of passion,
Could force his soul so to his own conceit
That from her working all his visage wann'd,
Tears in his eyes, distraction in's aspect,
A broken voice, and his whole function suiting
With forms to his conceit? and all for nothing!
For Hecuba!
What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba,
That he should weep for her? What would he do,
Had he the motive and the cue for passion
That I have? He would drown the stage with tears
And cleave the general ear with horrid speech,
Make mad the guilty and appal the free,
Confound the ignorant, and amaze indeed
The very faculties of eyes and ears. Yet I,
A dull and muddy-mettled rascal, peak,
Like John-a-dreams, unpregnant of my cause,

If i could get any clues or any help i would greatly appreciate it ! Thanks

I'm 14 this year and I'm in my school choir. Ok so I'm currently in tenor but I can't reach even beyond an E which is pathetic for a tenor. And I can't join bass because I can't even go below a B.
So basically I have a pathetic voice range of about 1 octave and a few notes (excluding falsetto). Even worse, my voice range has caused me to be excluded in school competitions such as SYF or overseas trips.
Anyone has any advice on how to expand my vocal range without hurting my vocal chords?

I've been in the chorus for three years and durign that time I learned to sing in the head voice, which has a softer edge & is usually the opposites of singers sing. and i feel really stupid saying this here, but it seems like I somehow FORGOT how to sing like I used to. Those that like to sing pop music and other types: how do you get that harder edge?

And also, when I hit the higher notes I sound, well, different. is there any way that can be changed so i don't sound so weird? thanks a lot to all

I'm a very technical player, and would like to know what techniques are necessary to make it truer to the Baroque style.

I try to play with as much precision as I can. I try to make my staccato very prickly, my legato very smooth, and normal notes exactly between. At the same time, I do my best to keep the emotion there. I also do my best to keep the left and right hands even so the counterpoint is heard and the left hand very smooth. My favorite composer is J.S Bach.

Okay, I am part of a small theatre group, based in Devon, planning a local historical play. Setting aside the obvious sources of funding like Arts Council, Lottery, etc, can anyone reccomend less known grants or things to which we might possibly be able to apply?
