How many music supplements should I submit?

I have one music supplement ready (Vocals) in the Musical Threatre genre. I do have another well-produced band recording of my voice in another song that is more Rock. My SlideRoom account allows me to submit 5 items in total. Would it be okay for me to just submit my best supplement (the Musical Theatre one) or should I submit at least two to showcase variety? Should I give in the effort to submit more supplements?

Note: I’m not apply for a music-related major. This is just to demonstrate my skills for something I’ve worked hard over many years

Make sure you sign-up with another email account if submitting a second supplement: https://admission.brown.edu/first-year/supplementary-materials

This is the advice that Brown provides: https://admission.brown.edu/first-year/supplementary-materials/music

“In rare circumstances, two music submissions may be submitted by students with equally impressive talent in two different areas within music performance or composition.”

Personally, I did not submit a music supplement, but this is because I was not performing at a competition-level and was doing it more for fun than anything else. Some advise on CC to not to submit a music supplement to a T20 unless you perform close to conservatory-level-----my opinion’s that it’s fine as long as your recording shows that you’ve spent time and effort on your art.

I would just submit the one, the musical theater one. It probably demonstrates your voice best.

Are you also submitting a music resume and letter(s) of recommendation from teacher and or director? The resume should include your work with the band and any other musical activities or training.
