<p>Has anyone audtioned for Ithaca yet? My son’s audtion is next weekend and just wondering what to expect.</p>
<p>My d is auditioning in NYC during the Unifieds. She recieved a confirmation and a requirement page. At the bottom of the green Audition Requirement page states
*NOTE: Musical Theatre auditionees in locations other than Ithaca College must also provide an audio tape or CD of the singing portion of your audition. This recording should be submitted at check-in and will be shared with the music director at the College.</p>
<p>Does this mean a recording of just the music accompinament or a recording of my d actually singing what she plans to sing in the audition? </p>
<p>This is a new one to me.</p>
<p>A recording of the accompaniment.</p>
<p>Actually I am pretty sure it means a recording of what your D will be singing at the audition. My D has a friend at Ithaca and she talked to her about it since my D will be auditioning in LA. I believe it is because not all the faculty are at the off site auditions so this is for those who are not at the audition. Some schools videotape auditionees for this purpose but Ithaca uses this format.</p>
<p>So a recording of a 16 bar piano accompaniment and a 32 bar piano accompaniment, no voice?</p>
<p>I believe austinmtmom is correct. Even the wording of the statement implies that you must hand in your SINGING AUDITION as a recording (the actually singing with accompaniment) if OFF CAMPUS for the audition. This is NOT the same as asking for an ACCOMPANIMENT TAPE. </p>
<p>Please double check with the school to be certain.</p>
<p>It is definitely a recording of vocals with accompaniment…exactly as you will do for your audition. D did it last year in Chicago. Good luck</p>
<p>Thanks everyone for your input. Great! one more thing to have to do before we leave next week!</p>
<p>Those who audition for Ithaca at an off site location are supposed to submit a recording of them singing their songs. This is for the reference of the auditors.</p>
<p>I tried to call the schools Theatre Dept. today but I got a recording. Haven’t heard back from them yet. We are planning to get the recording next week before we go to NYC. Do any other schools ask for this?</p>
<p>Does anyone know if the recording should be our 16 and 32 bar song cuts, or if they should be the entire songs? If anyone knows, please respond! I’m getting panicky since I’m recording my CD this week and my audition is on Saturday.</p>
<p>Record exactly what you plan to sing for the auditors live.</p>
